Stampin’ Up! Crane of Fortune for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good morning and welcome to the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! Today I used the pretty Stampin’ Up! Crane of Fortune bundle with the Symbols of Fortune specialty designer series paper for a Good Luck card. You can find the supplies I used along with card stock cuts at the bottom of my post.

We have a Sketch Challenge this week and here is the pretty sketch we are using:

I adhered a panel of Symbols of Fortune specialty designer series paper to the front of a Crumb Cake card base. I adhered a Soft Succulent mat to the back of another panel of the DSP and adhered that to the card front with liquid glue.

I stamped the pretty crane from the Stampin’ Up! Crane of Fortune cling stamp set in Crumb Cake ink on a Basic White panel and adhered it to the card front with dimensionals. I cut a leaf sprig from the leftover and two sets of ginkgo leaves from Soft Succulent. I adhered the leaf sprig and a gingko leaf die cut to the card front with glue dots.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Crane Of Fortune stamp set in evening Evergreen on Calypso Coral and cut it out with the Messages die. I folded a short length of Soft Succulent ribbon and adhered it to the back of the label and adhered the label to the card front with dimensionals. I finished the card with pretty Polished Dots.

For the inside, I stamped the dragonflies from the Stampin’ Up! Crane Of Fortune stamp set in Crumb Cake in the top corner of a Basic White panel. I adhered a strip of Symbols of Fortune DSP to the side and adhered the gingko leaf die cut with glue dots. I adhered the panel to the inside of the card.

Today’s hop sketch is really nice for showing off pretty designer series papers. And this lovely crane goes perfectly with this DSP, they did a really nice job of shading with this stamp!
