Good Morning and welcome to the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! The Stampin’ Up! Translucent Florals bundle is a pretty floral set and the Delightful Floral designer series paper that is part of the Special Release coordinates with it perfectly. 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 I featured the pretty Delightful Floral designer series paper:

I adhered a adhered a panel of the Delightful Floral designer series paper to the front of a Parakeet Party card base with liquid glue and wrapped a length of Parakeet Party ribbon around the card front tying a bow.

I cut three panels of Delightful Florals DSP with three circles from the Stylish Shapes dies. I adhered the two largest to the card with liquid glue, tucking them under the ribbon. I adhered the smallest circle with dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Translucent Florals stamp set in Versamark ink on Berry Burst. I sprinkled it with white embossing powder, shook off the excess and heated the powder with my heat tool until it was bright and shiny. I did this in two steps, so that the words would be in a straight line instead of over each other. I cut the sentiment out with the long skinny banner die from the Stylish Shapes dies and adhered it with dimensionals. I finished the card with tinsel gems.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the small flower and stems from the Stampin’ Up! Translucent Florals stamp set in the corners of a Basic White panel. I stamped the stems in Pretty Peacock and the flowers in Berry Burst, Calypso Coral and Fresh Freesia. I stamped the sentiment in Pretty Peacock and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

A simple birthday card made with the pretty Stampin’ Up! Translucent Florals bundle and Delightful Floral designer series paper.
