It's the weekend! Time for easy, simple stamping! Today I am hopping with some Crafty Collaborators as we share alternative ideas from the February 2021 Paper Pumpkin Bouquet of Hope Kit. I didn't get this month's kit but it inspired me to create today's project. I hope that you enjoy this Out of the Box idea!
Inspired by BOUQUET OF HOPE - February 2021 Paper Pumpkin Kit

Today's Project
We always need to have a few cards on hand to give people hope whether they're having a bad day or experiencing hardships. A dear friend lost her father this past week so I knew I needed to make her a sympathy and the Bouquet of Hope Paper Pumpkin Kit was the perfect inspiration.
Project Details
The Flowering Vine Dies are the center attraction taking inspiration from the Merry Merlot and the Just Jade cards in the kit...
The Flowering Vines oval die was used to die cut a stencil from Basic White cardstock to create the custom backgrounds with Just Jade ink and a Blending Brush. Both backgrounds (Just Jade and Basic White) are 4"x 5-1/4".
Two additional ovals were die cut and colored with Mossy Meadow, Just Jade, Merry Merlot, Rococo Rose, and Bumblebee Stampin' Write Markers.
The Woven Heirlooms sentiment was tapped in Tuxedo Black Memento ink and stamped on Basic White cardstock. The largest graphic image was tapped in Bumblee ink and stamped multiple times over the sentiment. One sentiment was die cut with the Tasteful Labels Dies (and stacked five layers) while the other was fussy cut. The white ribbon (retired) was colored with the Light Just Jade Stampin' Blends Marker.
The insides of the cards compliment the card fronts... one with more ink blending and a sympathy sentiment while the other with more generation stamping and an encouragement sentiment.
