I really wanted to use the Hope and Kindness bundle because it is going going gone by 30th June. Its such a beautiful pack and I just love it so much. I will be sad when its gone.

So I pulled out my 
Hope & Kindness Stamp + Thin Cuts from the above bundle.

Its so pretty. I cut two lots of each of the flowers in White Daisy Cardstock and stamped with Intense Black Exclusive Inks™ Stamp Pad. Then I cut the Capri Cardstock using the lovely Postage Frames Thin Cuts in the larger two sizes. I adhered the Capri dark side frame and light side of the inside onto the card base (White Cards & Envelopes Value Pack).

Then I pulled out my Candied Apple Distress Oxide™ Ink Pad and splotched down some ink onto my All-purpose MatI used my Medium Round Waterbrush to add water to the ink in varying amounts. The more water I added the lighter the colour got. I had 3 tones... and coloured the flowers in the mid-tone, the leaves in the lightest colour and the almost straight ink in the berries and heart etc.

After I had painted all the flowers I wanted to, I still had ink on my mat so I grabbed the word heart cut out and smooshed the ink onto the letters. I didn't end up using for this card but its ready for the next one.

I cut a white bit of cardstock and stamped Thinking of you from For All Occasions which is on SALE this month for Stamptacular. I have used this ALL year!! Grab it now before it disappears.

I adhered the flowers in a cluster at the bottom and added the thinking of you postage stamp on the top left angled. Finished off with the heart and Gold Glitter Gems.
