Hi Stampers!
I love this time of year! There are flowers everywhere around our house. Many of the perennials are beginning to bloom, the annuals in the gardens are growing so quickly, the daisies and other wild flowers are popping up, and the petunias and geraniums on my front porch are bursting with color! Today’s cards are inspired by all those flowers! The pretty floral patterned Hand-Penned DSP is so pretty all you need to do is add a greeting (and maybe a bit of ribbon) and you have a beautiful card in no time at all. Let’s take a peek the cards.
Each card features a layer of floral print paper from the Hand-Penned DSP. I used two stamp sets for the greetings. The backgrounds for the greetings were stamped using the WATEECOLOR SHAPES stamp set. The greetings are from the BIGGEST WISH stamp set.

BIGGEST WISH
The measurements for the card bases and layers are the same for all the cards:
* Card Base - 8 1/2” x 5 1/2” scored and folded at 4 1/4” or 11” x 4 1/4” scored and folded 5 1/2”
* Contrasting cardstock layer - 5 1/8” x 3 7/8”
* DSP layer - 5” x 3 3/4”
* All the greetings were stamped on Basic White cardstock and punched out, die cut or fussy cut.
* All the greetings (words) were stamped with Cinnamon Cider ink.
* All the greetings are attached to the cards with dimensionals.
The card base is Cinnamon Cider, the contrasting cardstock layer is Blushing Bride. The floral DSP was adhered to the Blushing Bride cardstock. This piece was adhered to the card base. The background for the greeting was stamped with Blushing Bride ink. The greeting was punched out with the Double Oval Punch. The Cinnamon Cider mat was also punched out with the Double Oval Punch.
The card base for this card is Cinnamon Cider. The contrasting cardstock layer is Petal Pink. The background for the greeting was stamped with Petal Pink ink and die cut with the Stitched Rectangles Dies. The Cinnamon Cider mat was die cut using the same set of dies. The floral DSP was adhered to the cardstock layer. The Petal Pink Organdy Striped Ribbon was wrapped around the piece and tied in a bow. This piece was adhered to the card base. The greeting was placed a bit off center toward the right.
This card base is Pale Papaya. The contrasting cardstock layer is Cinnamon Cider. The background for the greeting was stamped with Pale Papaya ink and the greeting was stamped with Cinnamon Cider ink. I fussy cut the image and mounted it on a Cinnamon Cider mat. I adhered the floral DSP to the cardstock mat, and wrapped the Pale Papaya Open Weave Ribbon around the piece and tied it in a bow. This piece was adhered to the card base. The sentiment piece was again place a bit off center toward the right of the card.
The contrasting cardstock is Basic White. The greeting background was stamped with Soft Succulent ink. The greeting was stamped with Cinnamon Cider ink. The greeting was fussy cut and matted on a piece of Cinnamon Cider cardstock. The floral patterned DSP was adhered to the Basic White cardstock. Soft Succulent Open Weave Ribbon was wrapped around the piece and tied in a bow. The piece was attached to the card base. The greeting was centered closer to the top of the card.
The card base is So Saffron. The contrasting layer is Cinnamon Cider. The greeting background was stamped with So Saffron ink. The greeting was stamped with Cinnamon Cider ink. I die cut the greeting and the Cinnamon Cider mat wit the Layering Circles Dies. The floralDSP was adhered to the cardstock mate. The Bumblebee 1/4” Gingham Ribbon was wrapped around the piece and tied in a bow. The greeting was adhered in the upper center area of the piece. The piece was adhered to the card base.
These cards go together quickly, and that means you can make cards and still have plenty of time to get outside and enjoy all that summer has to offer! What could be better?
That is all for today. Thank you for stopping by. Until next time...
Stamp Happy!
