The Canada Inks Up Team Blog Hop challenge was to use products from the Annual and January to June Mini catalogues.
I decided to do a Joy Fold Card and to start with the Forever and Always bundle and see where it went from there. I am quite pleased with the way it turned out.
Here are the instructions for the card.
Card base Misty Moonlight card stock cut at 8 1/2 x 4 1/4 scored at 5 1/2.
Sea Side Spray card stock cut at 4 1/4 x 3 1/4 and attached it to middle of the inside of card with liquid glue.
Inside was a piece of Misty Moonlight card stock cut at 8 x 3 scored at 4″, glued to the top of the Sea Side Spray layer.
Basic White that was 3 3/4 x 2 3/4 for the area to write on.
Hydrangea Hill Mercury Glass Acetate cut at 2 3/4 x 4, but I used the flip side of the acetate showing the silver side. I sponged some liquid glue on the wrong side, by doing the sponging of the glue it spread a thin layer of glue all over the acetate therefore the glue did not show through the acetate. I then attached the acetate to the short side on the outside of the card base.
Silver Foil 2 3/4 x 3 3/4 and attached it the Misty Moonlight flip fold of the card with liquid glue.
Building the focal point I started with the largest die from the Stitched So Sweetly dies in Midnight Madness and then die cut the next sized die in Sea Side Spray.
The Mercury Glass Acetate is cut about 3/4 x 3 1/4 and flagged on both ends and glued onto the middle of the Midnight Madness Stitched So Sweetly die with Stampin Seal. The Sea Side Spray die is attached over the top of the Misty Moonlight with dimensionals and then it is all attached to the silver layer with dimensionals.
The word Love is die cut in Silver Foil from the Always Die set and then attached with liquid glue.
The flower is from the True Love Designer Series paper which I colored with light and dark Misty Moonlight Blenders and light snd dark Granny Apple Green Blends. It was attached with dimensional and liquid glue.
Metallic Silver Pearls to finish off my card.

Attach this layer to the acetate layer but only put glue on half of the layer.
Attach the Silver Foil to the Foam Adhesive Sheet and then die cut out the Love from the Always die set.
I wanted to use just the word Always from the Always in My Heart stamps set so I taped off the other words and stamped in Versamark and them heat embossed in White powder.
I colored the flowers in Misty Moonlight light and dark, the leaves in Granny Apple Green, and the flower centers in Daffodil Delight dark.
I attached the flowers to the card layer using dimensionals.
I glued the Always sentiment in the right corner with liquid glue and then place the Love on a slight angle.
For a little bling I placed Basic Rhinestones on the Sea Side Spray layer.
Center the Basic White layer on the inside of the card making sure none of the white shows through when card is closed.
I finally got to play with these cute little girls from The Hey Girlfriend Stamp set and if you love to color than this stamp set is perfect for you. I love to color and fussy cut so I was up for the challenge. I decided I wanted to try and paper piece the dresses. I had so much fun coloring and fussy cutting these little girls and I am so pleased with the way they turned out. But you really need to love, love coloring and fussy cutting to do this card!

Stamped the hummingbird from the SAB A Touch of Ink stamp set in Memento Ink and color the hummingbird with Stampin Blends . I used Old Olive light and dark and Real Red for the throat . I also colored the red throat with Wink of Stella to give it a little glitter. I stamped the flower from the same stamp set and colored it with blends as well using Highland Heather light and dark and the leaves in Granny Apple Green. I fussy cut out the hummingbird and the flowers and then attached them to my card using dimensionals.
For the sentiment I stamped Happy Birthday also from the stamp set in Highland Heather and then punched it out using the Classic Label punch. I also punched a piece of Highland Heather card stock using the same punch and cut it in half and added it to each side of my sentiment giving it a more layered look.
I finished the card with three Basic Pearls placed on the top layer
