Hello and welcome to my crafty blog. Today’s card features the ‘plentiful plants’ stamps and dies from Stampin’ Up!, inspired by Joanne’s sketch over at The Paper Players. I rotated the layout for my card (hope that’s OK, Joanne!) and used the colours from Just Add Ink‘s inspiration photo.
I started by rubbing ‘pumice stone’ Distress Oxide across SU’s ‘pinewood planks’ embossing folder, and then ran the bottom edge of a square of white card through it. I attached that to a 6×6 card blank.
I stamped and die cut three of the pots from the ‘plentiful plants’, together with a selection of leaves. I used Distress Oxides in ‘stormy sky’, mermaid lagoon’ & ‘walnut stain’ for the pots, with ‘iced spruce’ and ‘evergreen bough’ for the plants. I glued a set of leaves into each pot and then attached them to the card front with foam pads.
I finishe by stamping one of the sentiments from ‘art gallery’ onto a die cut banner and attached that below the pots, also on foam pads. The final touch was a few Glossies.
Thanks for dropping in. I had a great morning in an online class with Joanne James (who’s hosting this week’s Paper Players challenge) – there’ll be more inspiration from that over the coming days!

How pretty, Deborah! Your rotated sketch works perfectly and I love the sweetly arranged images. The colors and wood texture knock this out of the park! I’m so glad you played along this week at The Paper Players.

What a gorgeous card, Deborah! I love the little pops of colour in your plants and pots against the white. Such a fabulous idea to ink up your embossing folder first. It gives a fantastic effect. Thanks for playing along this week at Just Add Ink. Rochelle xo

Very pretty, Deborah! I love the soft colors and how you flipped the sketch. The planks embossing folder adds so much texture. The glossies are the perfect colorful accents. Thank you for sharing with The Paper Players this week!
