Welcome to Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Team Blog Hop!  Our theme this month is “Birthday”.  My project today features the new Artistically Inked Stamp Set and Expressions in Ink Specialty Designer Series Paper, plus the coordinating Expressions in Ink Ephemera Pack.  We have a great group of participants in our hop this month.  Please take time to stop by to visit each blog to see what the Inkin’ Krew Team members are sharing with you today.

The Expressions in Ink Specialty Designer Series Paper features gold foil accents and bold, bright colors – so pretty.  The patterns can be combined and they can also stand alone.

This card showcases one of the floral patterns.  Use Multipurpose Liquid Glue to adhere a panel of the Designer Paper to a gold foil sheet.  Then use Glue adhere the layer to a panel of Evening Evergreen card stock before adhering directly to the Basic White card base.

Use Polished Pink Ink to stamp the sentiment from the Artistically Inked Stamp Set on the card front below the art piece.  Use Mini Glue Dots to adhere a couple Gold Foil precut leaves and branches to the card front.  Tie a bow with Polished Pink 3/8″ polished Pink Open Weave Ribbon and adhere over the stems.  Add a few 2021-2023 In Color Jewels.

For the inside of the card, use Liquid Glue to adhere a strip of the Expressions in Ink Specialty paper along the bottom edge.  Stamp the sentiment from the Friends Are Like Seashells Stamp Set with Polished Pink Ink.
