I just love this new Garden Greenhouse photopolymer stamp set and its accompanying Greenhouse dies. This is the first card I imagined and then made using this bundle:
The basic supplies are in this one stamp set and coordinating dies.

I used three basic colors plus white:

Clear blocks for the images:

And a very few accessories:

Measurements (from the base card front layer on up):
- Card front: 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″, scored at 4-1/4″
- Next layer: 5-1/4″ x 4″ (Basic White)
- Next layer: 4-1/4″ x 3-1/2″ (Polished Pink)
- Next layer: 4″ x 2-1/4″ (Basic White)
- Next layer: 3″ square scrap (Vellum card stock) – die cut the greenhouse outline image
- Final layer: 3″ square scrap (Basic White) –
- Scraps for flowers and branch (Polished Pink, Daffodil Delight, Garden Green)
- Basic White scrap for greeting, approximately 1/2″ x 1-3/4″
The easiest instructions are to just LOOK at each layer and attach one to the next to the next.
- The first Basic White layer is run through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss machine using the Brick & Mortar 3-D Embossing Folder. Attach to card front.
- Stamp the greenery image on the second (and smaller) Basic White layer. I used Garden Green Classic Ink to match the card front card stock.. Attach it to the previous later.
- Die cut solid greenhouse from Vellum card stock.
- Die cut greenhouse structure from Basic White card stock. Have fun poking out all of those little pieces. I use the Take Your Pick Die Brush Tip and a foam mat that’s placed inside an empty Paper Pumpkin box.
Take Your Pick Tools:

- Attach the previous two layers carefully using Liquid Glue. Attach these layers over the stamped image.
- Die cut two flowers and the branch and attach them to the greenhouse.
- Stamp greeting on scrap and attach to greenhouse, tucking the end under a leaf. All done.
Tomorrow I’ll show you how I adapted this beautiful card for my stampers at our semi-monthly community center stamping class.
