A Touch of Ink Fun Fold card with Oh So Ombre; quick & easy!

We made these pretty fun fold cards at my February card clubs!  I think the A Touch of Ink stamp set is incredibly versatile!  There was an option for everyone's needs.

I shared this card on my FB Live yesterday plus two others with this paper & stamp set.  You can see it here.

Aren't they pretty?!  I feel like these two Sale-a-Bration choices go together perfectly.  The Ombre DSP lets the stamp shine though.  You can get either or both free with an order through February 28th.  Sale-a-Bration ends then and there won't be anymore 'free' with purchase options.  

Go here to see the A Touch of Ink stamp set and here to see the Oh So Ombre DSP.

I added some of our new Black Matte gems and the pretty Black Glittered ribbon too.  That neat stitched die-cut is from the Stitched Nested Label dies seen here.

  Her next card features a beautiful color combination of Copper Clay with Pretty Peacock, Very Vanilla and Lost Lagoon.

  It also shows off the pretty All About Autumn specialty designer paper.  It's back in stock now too; see it here! 

  She simple sponged a bit of Copper clay ink over the fall image.

  It's November! It's hard to believe we're starting to think about Thanksgiving already!

• Gorgeous Abundant Beauty Kraft notecards with gift box

  November 1, 2023

  ---

  I was inspired by this set of cards & box by a project shared online. I changed up the colors to 'my' favorites and created this:

  Save

  I absolutely LOVE the Abundant Beauty Decorative masks seen here! The sunflowers are my favorite of course, but I also used the houndstooth mask here as well. Unfortunately these masks are out of stock right now. They'll be back around November 13th. 

  Save

  You might think I made this box but I sure didn't!  It's found on page 135 of our Annual Catalog. It includes 20 cards & 20 envelopes and one box for gifting cards in; all in Kraft paper.  The cards are notecard side which is 5" X 3 1/2". See it here online. 

  Save

  As you can see in the photo below I used the houndstooth mask to add a soft background to each notecard.  I used a blending brush and Copper Clay ink.  

  Save

  The sunflowers are made with Pretty Peacock ink and the leaves are Granny Apple Green on White cardstock. Yes; they are all fussy cut! I did some but my friend Pat did the rest for me; she loves to fussy cut things! 

  The greetings are from the So Sincere stamp set from the 2023 Holiday catalog.  It's my favorite greeting set right now. See it here. 

  Save

   

  You can see in the photo below that I added the houndstooth pattern to the entire box, inside & out.  Because it comes flat it's easy to do. 

  I hope you're inspired by this project.  I'm not sure who will receive it yet, but it will be someone special!
