This beautiful card was created using the Hostess Level 1 set, Because I Care. This is a pretty set with lots of possibilities! Since I have some beautiful blue hydrangeas growing in my garden at home, I wanted to use a blue color scheme with this stamp set.

I used Stampin' Write markers to color my stamp in Pacific Point, Marina Mist, Certainly Celery, and Old Olive. After "huffing" on the stamp to freshen the colors, I stamped the image on a piece of Naturals White cardstock. I love this cardstock; it's so nice and heavy, and it has such character! I added a little color with my markers to the stamped image, and used an Aqua Painter to provide a watercolored look and spread the colors a little. The white dots were created by touching a VersaMarker to the image and sprinkling some white Stampin' Emboss Powder on the dots, which I then heat embossed using a Heat Tool. I added some white marks around the dots with a white Gel Pen. The sentiment was stamped in Pacific Point from the same stamp set. The edges of the cardstock were punched with a Stampin' Up! Eyelet Border Punch. I then added this layer with adhesive to layers of Pacific Point and Old Olive cardstock. The card base is Naturals White cardstock.

This card was really fun and easy to make! I hope you enjoy it! :)
