Hello Peeps!! Hope all is well with you.
Today' card share is one I made with a couple of challenges in mind.
The challenge at Inkspirational is a pretty Visual Prompt:

and I used the sketch at Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge
When I looked at the photo prompt, I thought the flowers looked like Hydrangeas and I was drawn to the green one. That was my jumping off point. I have made several Hydrangea cards but never nade a green one.
My card:
I really like how this one came out. I used the retired Thankful Garden stamp set with the matching stencil/masks and dies.
I used Soft Seafoam for the green and Garden Green for the leaves.
The base of my card is Basic Black cardstock and then a layer of Soft Seafoam followed with some white that I embossed with the Brick & Mortar EF. I then used a strip of Soft Seafoam DSP from the Subtles pack down the side.
I stamped the sentiment on Basic Black with Versamark and embossed with white embossing powder/
I cut it apart and fussy cut around the thankful part my skills at cutting out words are a bit rough, I need some more practice.
I finished up with a few Back Matte Dots and a small twine bow.
That is all for now, Thanks for coming by!
