Good in the World with Plentiful Plants

There are endless ways to tell someone how special they are. Maybe they’ve done something really nice for you or they’ve done something really nice for someone else. Maybe they are just a wonderful person and deserve to hear that every once in a while. We might tell them in person how special they are or give them a gift they’ll always remember. We could also design a special card that blends together some of their favorite things with some of our favorite things. How fun! Here’s a card that says exactly what I want it to say to my special friend:

The 3-3/8″ x 4-5/8″ Basic White panel on my card is lightly brushed with Pool Party ink and a Blending Brush. I love the soft touch these brushes add to a project!  I placed a Paper Lattice over the Basic White paper and secured it with Post-it Tape to hold it in place. I picked up Pool Party ink with my Blending Brush and applied it over the lattice stencil in small circles.

Each Paper Lattice pack includes 10 kraft lattices that can be used to build a layer on a card or to paint a beautiful texture. Here’s a look:

The potted plant that’s a focal point on my card includes three images that are stamped with the Plentiful Plants stamp set and cropped with the Perfect Plants Dies. I used Shaded Spruce and Soft Succulent to stamp the plants and Cajun Craze to stamp the pot. The potted plant hangs with a die from Perfect Plants – so easy and fun to build! Here’s a closer look at my hanging plant:

And here’s a look at this popular bundle, new in Stampin’ Up!’s 2021 Annual Catalog, that I used to build my hanging plant: The sentiment is from another new set, Through This Together, which features 21 small sentiments that show amazing support, kindness and gratitude. Here’s a look at the sentiments in this set:

I accented my card with Elegant Faceted Gems, a carryover from Stampin’ Up!’s 2020 Annual Catalog that played well with the earthiness of my card.

I loved working with the natural tones in this card. If you like the mix of Pool Party, Soft Succulent and Shaded Spruce as much as I do, I hope you’ll save this for future reference:
