It’s been awhile since I posted because I needed to focus on family and work and had to put crafting aside. However, it’s a new year and I am back with this card I created for Hand Stamped Sentiments first Inspiration challenge of the year. I used the Inspirational Sketched stamp set from the new mini catalog.


I stamped the bird from the Inspirational Sketches stamp set with Memento Black and colored with Stampin’ Blends – Pool Party, Night of Navy and Daffodil Delight on a layer die cut from the Deckled Rectangle Dies. The sentiment is from the Excellent Eggs stamp set and stamped with Memento Black. The blue background paper is DSP is from the Bright & Beautiful 6″ x 6″ pack. The ribbon is Night of Navy & Gold. I embellished with Brushed Metallic adhesive dots. The inside of the card I stamped the mushroom image in Blueberry Bushel.
