Ink & Inspiration - November 2021

Ink & Inspiration - November 2021

• Thursday, 25 November 2021

Welcome to the Ink & Inspiration Blog Hop. You are currently visiting Melva Peters from Canada. 

The theme this month is Use Your Stash!" For my card today, I used the Expressions In Ink Designer Series Paper.  Are you like me?  When I see something shiny or new I immediately start using it and I forget about the shiny, older product.  That's exactly what happened with my Expressions In Ink paper.  It was very sad sitting in my cupboard until I pulled it out to create this quick and easy card!

Instructions

1. Cut Mint Macaron card stock 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" and score at 4 1/4".  Fold on score line to form card base.
2. Cut Shaded Spruce card stock 4" x 5 1/4" and adhere to card base.
3. Cut 3 pieces of Designer Series Paper 1 1/2" x 3 3/4"
4. Adhere to the card base spaced evenly across Shaded Spruce layer
5. Cut Basic White card stock 1" x 2 1/2"
6. Stamp sentiment using Versamark and sprinkle with Gold Embossing Powder.
7. Heat to melt
8. Cut Gold Foil 1 1/4" x 2 3/4"
9. Adhere sentiment to Gold Foil using Dimensionals.
10. Adhere to card base using Dimensionals
11. Cut 3" of ribbon.  Fold in half and adhere under left end of sentiment using a Glue Dot.
12. Trip ends on a diagonal
13. Adhere Gilded Gems

Now it's time to be inspired by the fabulous projects in our Blog Hop:
