These products sure make card-making easy! 

Here is my card: 

Now I have to confess...I used some retired products in this card.  Since Stampin' Up! used retired colors in their ephemera tag....I took my color cues from the tag.  

I created the background by putting mask over white cardstock and using a blending brush and Sweet Sorbet ink .
