Extraordinary Birthday Card – Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop where we are making projects inspired by a colour challenge. I have made my card using the Extraordinary Flora and Layered Thoughts stamp sets.

 

Colours used to make this card are:

 

To recreate the extraordinary flora card, you will need:

Thick Basic White card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Basic Black card – 5⅞” by 2⅛”
Basic White card – 5⅞” by 2”
Basic White card – 5¾” by 3½”

 

The birthday sentiment, from the Layered Thoughts stamp set, was stamped in the centre of the 5⅞” by 2” panel of Basic White card using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. This strip was then adhered to the panel of Basic Black card. The whole piece was mounted onto the Thick Basic White card front.

The large multi-image stamp from the Extraordinary Flora stamp set, was stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto the 5¾” by 3½” piece of Basic White card.

The coloured images were then arranged around the sentiment panel, some with Dimensionals and others tucked under and glued in place.
