This is another card I am making for this week's Teapot Tuesday Challenge. Lisa (Shoe Girl) is our hostess and she has a terrific challenge asking us to make cards for a hospice center so they can be distributed for birthdays. I made a pink version of this card and thought blue would be nice too. One of my favorite colors is pink, and my mother loved blue so I am making a few cards in blue in her memory. The flower is stamped using 4 colors of blue ink, then is die cut out. The ferns are stamped in 2 layers right onto the card panel, then the die cut flower is adhered on top. The sentiment is stamped in Suede Shoes ink. Thanks again for this great challenge Lisa and thank you for looking today. ~Karen.

How lovely that you are making this in memory of your mums love for blue flowers. Another perfect layered stamping creation Karen. The hospice will be thrilled.

Suede Shoes...what a great name for blue ink. I hardly ever think of stamping my sentiment in colour. The carnation looks great in this colorway...though it doesn't evoke that spicy clove smell the way the red one did.
