Good morning, good morning. Thinking of all those who have been or are in the path of Hurricane Ian. My heart goes out to you and praying for your safety. It’s so very scary.

We invite you to join us during our Inkin’ Krew Facebook Live events during the day for some fun card sharing demonstrations AND some give- aways as well.

Today’s card is another pretty simple but elegant card that could so easily have a different sentiment: birthday, anniversary… we could almost call this an ‘all occasion card’. :O)

Gosh, the light isn’t so good on this… it’s difficult to see the embossing :O( This starts with a Thick Basic White A2 card base with the fold at the left. I then took a Basic White panel & ran it through the Painted Posies embossing folder and adhered it to a Basic Black piece. I wrapped this fun Black & White 1/4″ Gingham Ribbon around and tied a knot. The sentiment was stamped in Polished Pink ink and comes from Framed Occasions stamp set. I die cut with a banner die from Hydrangea Dies. I put dimensionals on it & added it right over the ribbon. Solid Faceted Gems seemed to be the perfect addition for the sentiment banner. I added black dimensionals to the back of these panels and attached it to the card base.

For the inside… another Basic White panel and stamped it in Polished Pink using this fun flower stem from Framed Occasions stamp set. It seems so similar to the long flower stem in the embossed front – like a perfect match. This is adhered to a Basic Black and then added to the inside of the card – and done.

For the envelope, a bit of black & white from the Perfectly Penciled DSP. On the front I stamped the same flower from Framed Occasions twice, re-inking in between, then stamped final time without re-inking. It creates some depth and makes it appear as though in the background. And yes, this was Polished Pink ink.
This Painted Posies embossing folder is in the Annual 2022-2023 Catalog – as are the Hydrangea Dies AND the Framed Occasions stamp set & Gingham Ribbon. The entire list of supplies is below.
