Hello everyone. Can you believe we are in May already? I’m still in shock! Well I do know we have a New challenge #IB387 and it’s so much fun Vases is our theme and a New Fun Card Sketch.
Let’s Get Started:


I was inspired by the vases and colors. I even was inspired by the card sketch. I started out with some flowers, flower centers, and stems dies from My Monthly Hero from Hero Arts February 2026. I used pink, and green cardstock from my stash. I ink blended the greenery with some Hero Arts Ombre’ Lime to Forever Green ink. I used a small blending brush to get a little darker green ink on my green stems and flower centers as I was trying to match the inspiration photo. I also ink blended my pink cardstock flowers with Hero Arts Azalea ink.

I used a Vase die from Spellbinders advent callendar that I cut out with pink cardstock and white cardstock. On my white vase I doodled a little using a green Attenew marker I drew lines and colored a strip on top kinda like the vase in photo. I then cut it with my scissors and glued it to my pink vase. Next, I cut out dark blue cardstock and a white strip of white cardstock. I glued everything to a green A2 top folding card base. I stamped my sentiment on white cardstock with Hero Hues Moss Green ink using my Monthly Hero stamp set and used the coordinating die to cut it out and a few extras to glue for dimension. I love how clean this card looks. I had fun with this challenge. Now it’s your turn!
