Stampin’ Up! Brushed With Beauty for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Morning and welcome to the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! The Stampin’ Up! Brushed With Beauty Suite is has pretty florals and wonderful sentiments. I used the two bundles in the suite along with the designer series paper for today’s friendship 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:

Adhere a strip of Petal Pink Stampin’ Up! Brushed With Beauty designer series paper to a floral panel with liquid glue and adhere the layered panel to the front of a Lost Lagoon card base. Cut another panel of the DSP with the large rectangle Nested Essentials die and adhere it to the card.

Use the large Petals Of Beauty leaf die to cut a panel of Stampin’ Up! Brushed With Beauty DSP and adhere it to the card with glue dots. Stamp the triple leaf on Very Vanilla using Mossy Meadow ink and cut it out with the coordinating die. Stamp two of the medium flowers using Petal Pink and Darling Duckling on Very Vanilla. Use full strength Petal Pink for the detailed stamp, stamped off petal pink for the background stamp and Darling Duckling for the center. Cut out the flowers with the coordinating die. Adhere the leaf cluster to the card with glue dots and the flowers with dimensionals.

Use the light Lost Lagoon Stampin’ Blend to color a length of Irregular Weave ribbon and tie a knot. Adhere it to the card with a glue dot, tucking it under the flowers. Stamp the Sentiment from the Words of beauty stamp set on Very Vanilla using Lost Lagoon ink and cut it out with the coordinating die. Adhere it to the card with glue dots and finish with Darling Duckling dots.

For the inside, stamp the flower from the Petals of Beauty stamp set using Petal Pink and Darling Duckling inks in the corner of a Very Vanilla panel. Trim the side with Stampin’ Up! Brushed With Beauty DSP and adhere the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

The Stampin’ Up! Brushed with Beauty suite has lots of pretty flowers and leaves – I love the two step stamped flowers! And the word dies in the Words of Beauty bundle are great with three layers! I love that there are so many other sentiments and label dies that fit them perfectly. And the colors in the DSP are so soft and pretty.
