Artistically Inked + Shopping Your Stash Birthday Card

Hello there! Thank you for joining me today for an Artistically Inked, Forever Fern, and Hand-Penned Petals birthday card, created by shopping my minimal stash.

I pulled in images from all 3 of the Distinktive stamp sets + 3 different embossing powders to really make this card exceptional for a very special recipient.

Notice the perfect scale of all of these images from our Annual Catalog and how beautifully our perfectly coordinated products work together.

As always, your Supplies and Instructions are below.

I started out with an A2 Basic White Thick card base that I layered a Crumb Cake CS mat onto with a Basic White Regular image panel, all cut down by 1/4″.

From Artistically Inked, I inked up the large flower and 2 small flowers with Pale Papaya and Polished Pink, that were cut with their coordinating Artistic Dies. The gold embossed leaves onto Basic White Regular CS are also from Artistically Inked and cut with its coordinating Artistic Die.

The bulb image from Forever Fern was stamped with Versamark onto Crumb Cake CS and heat embossed with white powder x2.

The sprigs with bulbs are from Hand-Penned Petals. This image has 2 stamps to it of the stem and bulbs. There are 2 very distinctly different images I created with embossing powder and colors. The bottom left was stamped with Versamark onto Crumb Cake CS with the stems heat embossed in white and bulbs embossed in gold. For the upper right bulb, the stem and bulbs were stamped with Versamark and heat embossed with gold and Pink Polish for the bulbs with clear embossing powder.

All of the images were adhered with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The sentiment was white heat embossed from Artistically Inked onto a piece of Crumb Cake CS and adhered with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I applied 3 each of 2021-23 In Color Jewels in Pink Passion, gold Metallic Pearls, and small Basic Pearl Jewels, scattered about the card front, as shown. The final embellishment was tying a bow with piece of Crumb Cake Baker’s Twine that I tucked up under the right side gold heat embossed leaves, adhered with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

I hope you enjoyed today’s project. Thank you for stopping by for a visit and have a great day!
