Playing in the Rain, Petal Park, Beautifully Happy, Thinking of You Card, Stampin' Up!

Good day to you! I am happy you are here!  The other day I had made a card using the "Petal Park" bundle and I thought I would make 3 of them but after making the one I set the other two pieces aside. I had everything stamped and cut out but I hadn't put them together. You can see that card here.  So today when I was looking at my messy worktable I saw the card front with the pieces sitting on top of it. I did use removable tape to hold the pieces in place so I wouldn't lose them but still, they weren't put together. SO when I saw the cute turtle from the "Playing in the Rain" set I thought it would look cute on top of those flowers. And that's how I came up with today's card.

The base of my card is a folded half-sheet of Basic White card stock. On top of that is a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Balmy Blue. Before taping it down I die cut the scalloped circle from the "Layering Layers" die set. 

Next I taped the "Petal Park" piece I had stamped the other day. It measured 3-7/8" x 5-1/8".  I taped that to the Balmy Blue piece and then that was taped to the front of the card. I stamped the words from the "Beautifully Happy" set using Granny Apple Green ink.

I die cut a stitched circle from the "Stylish Shapes" die set and scrubbed on some Balmy Blue ink using my Blending Brush.  Then I taped that circle to the scalloped circle. I set the circles in place using Dimensionals. 

The turtle is from the "Playing in the Rain" set and was stamped using black Memento ink. Then I colored it in using Daffodil Delight, Crumb Cake and Old Olive Blends Pens. I fussy cut him out and set it on top of the circles using Dimensionals.

I used a regular paper punch and punched out 4 circles of Daffodil Delight for the center of the flowers and the card was done.

I think it turned out well and it was nice to use that "Petal Park" piece in a different way.

Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop in and see today's thinking of you card,
