Hello again! Today's card is one I have entered into the TGIF Challenges #TGIFC337 Sketch Challenge this week.

I just want to thank TGIF challenges as they chose me as their winner of their #TGIFC336 Colour Challenge last week. I am very grateful!

For my card I used the Shaded Summer Stamp Set with the coordinating Summer Shadows Dies (recent Sale-a-bration item now retired), Penned Flowers Dies and ribbon. I blended Polished Pink ink onto Petal Pink card to create an ombré effect (the colour combination was inspired by Cindy Schuster).

Instructions:

- Use a piece of Basic White card, cut in half lengthwise and folded. Mat with a piece of Basic White card which has been embossed with the Timeworn Type Embossing Folder and splattered with Petal Pink ink. Attach using Stampin' Dimensionals.

- Use a piece of Petal Pink card and apply Polished Pink with a Blending Brush. Heat emboss the florals from the Shaded Summer onto this piece using Versamark Ink and White Stampin' Emboss Powder. Cut the card into three 1" strips and attach to the card with Foam Adhesive. Also use Versamark and White Stampin' Emboss Powder on Basic Black card to stamp a sentiment from the Shaded Summer stamp set.

- Die cut some florals using the Summer Shadow Dies from Basic White. Use a Sponge Dauber to add Polished Pink and Petal Pink inks to the edges of the florals. Die cut a piece of Polished Pink card using the border die from the Penned Flowers Dies. Also use a small die cut flower from the Pierced Blooms Dies (leftover from a previous project). Attach the flowers to the card using Liquid Glue and attach the sentiment using Stampin' Dimensionals.

- Use Dark Polished Pink and Dark Petal Pink Stampin' Blends and colour some Rhinestone Basic Jewels and then attach to the die cut flowers. Tie bows using Petal Pink Organdy Striped Ribbon and Polished Pink Open Weave Ribbon (cut in half and tied in a bow). Attach the bows to the card using Mini Glue Dots.
