Hello with Tulips and the Stamps of Life

Hello!

Today I put together a card with a blended panel. I did some ink blending over the weekend and this was left over.

I made it using Distress inks and Bristol Vellum paper. I find that this paper helps me blend a little easier instead of just regular white card stock.

I stamped some tulips at the bottom using Garden Green ink and Certainly Celery from Stampin' Up.
The tulips are Candy and Cranberry ink from The Stamps of Life.

Next, I cut the hello word and shadow from white and Candy card stock.

I ended up cutting the two layers with the Sizzix Dotted Rectangle Dies and mounting them at an angle on the Kraft base.

A little Gingersnap twine was tied on before gluing it all down.

After the Hello was added, I colored it with Clear Wink of Stella for a little shimmer.

Thanks for stopping by!

I am entering this card in the SSS Blog Wednesday Challenge: Spring Color Inspiration.
