Hello and welcome to today’s post. Thanks for popping by.
I used the Artistically Inked Bundle and five bright colours – Gorgeous Grape, Granny Apple Green, Mango Melody, Pacific Point and Poppy Parade.
I started by stamping the Pacific Point background onto a piece of Basic White cardstock and it looks great. Then I used the remaining colours to stamp the flower and leaves images. After die cutting them, I gave each of them some gentle scrunching so they would have some shape and height. The smaller flowers and leaves were adhered to the background piece using Multipurpose Glue. The larger flower was popped using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Then I added some Clear Wink of Stella to the Gorgeous Grape flower.
The birthday greeting was stamped and trimmed back to size before using more Stampin’ Dimensionals to position across the bottom of these flowers. After I stamped the small flower on the card insert and envelope, I added some sequins from the Expressions in Ink Ephemera Pack around the card front.
The five colours I chose for this project are very different to those that are found in the Expressions in Ink Suite – Polished Pink, Pale Papaya, Pear Pizzazz, Just Jade, Shaded Spruce and Evening Evergreen. I think that it’s fun to see what images will look like in ways other than what we can see in the catalogue.
Happy stamping.
