Crikey these weeks come round fast. It just seems like yesterday that I posted the card for the challenge, but of course a new week sees a new challenge over at Sunny Challenges & Creations.
Along with the sketch we had to use the current “In Colours“. I chose to use a couple of colours that will be retiring come September. I will admit I have not used these colours as much as I should have.

Envelope & Inside Card… |
Using my Blender Pen, I coloured my image with Peach Parfait, inking my Pen a little at a time. Feeling that it needed a little bit of a lift, I then added dashes of Poppy Parade Ink & blended with my Blender Pen. The piece was run through the Bigshot using the Square Lattice Embossing Folder & adhered to the piece of Poppy Parade Cardstock with Tombow Multipurpose Ink.
I punched 3 small flowers using flower punch from the Itty Bitty Punch Set, worked out where I wanted to place them, applied Tombow to the back of each & adhered to the larger piece of Whisper White Cardstock. I adhered the piece of DSP to the piece of Poppy Parade Cardstock &then to the large piece of Whisper White Cardstock. The whole lot was then run through the Bigshot & Embossing Folder – Square Lattice.
I adhered the piece of Ribbon across the width of the embossed piece, adhered the stamped piece to the top of the card with SU! Dimensionals, tied a bow, adhered to the card with Mini Glue Dots, & adhered 3 Rhinestones to the DSP flowers
All in all a very easy card, once which I am really happy with. When making it, I didn’t realise that it would be so clean & white! My type of card!

I stamped random images from “Growing Green” onto Wild Wasabi Cardstock, using Wild Wasabi Ink.
I stamped the same image onto Water Colour Paper in Chocolate Chip Ink & using my Aqua Painter, coloured the image with Wild Wasabi Ink. The flower image was stamped onto a scrap of Water Colour Paper again using Chocolate Chip Ink, coloured it with Rose Red Ink & my Aqua Painter. I cut around the flower & adhered it to the Water Colour Paper using SU Dimensionals. I stamped the sentiment in Chocolate Chip Ink.
