Thank You with Artistically Inked

Posted on May 5, 2021May 16, 2021 by Josee

I hope you’ve been enjoying the new catalogue! There are so many new stamp sets and products to fall in love with. My favourite new products line is Artistically Inked which features unique watercolour looks with the images!!! In the suite, you’ll find beautiful Designer Paper, a stamp set, coordinating dies and an embellishment pack. You can see the entire line HERE

Measurements:

  • Card Stock 1: Pale Papaya- 8 1/2” x 5 1/2” 3 ¾” x 5”
  • Card Stock 2: Basic White- 4” x 2 ¾”
  • Expressions in Ink Specialty DSP: 5 ½” x 2 ¼”

Instructions:

  1. Fold your card base in half on the long side at 4 ¼” and set aside.
  2. Emboss the 3 ¾” x 5” piece of Pale Papaya cardstock with the Macrame Embossing Folder then cut it in 1 ¼” x 5” strips. Glue those strips to your card front in a messy fashion. They may overlap each other in some places.
  3. Take your Basic White piece of cardstock and place it on a piece of scrap paper. Lay the decorative mask on top and use your blending brush and Pale Papaya ink to make the pattern shown. Then, stamp the sentiment using Memento Black ink. Attach that piece to the card front at an angle using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  4. Die-cut the leaf stem shown using the Artistic Dies and the Expressions in Ink DSP.
  5. Attach the die-cut to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I used a few mini glue dots on the parts that fall on the Pale Papaya cardstock to hold it down.
  6. Lastly, add a few In Color Jewels to the card front.

Here’s another fun card using a stamp set coming out in the next Annual Catalogue! We are less than 2 weeks away from the launch and you will love it! 🙂
This card is fairly simple to make, but I’ve made some others that I will share soon that are stepped up!

  • Cardstock: Soft Succulent (155776), Polished Pink (155710), Basic White (159276)
  • Ink:  Soft Succulent (155778), Polished Pink (155712),  Daffodil Delight (147094)

  3. Stamp the middles using the Daffodil Delight ink pad.
  4. Stamp the small flower by inking it on the Polished Pink ink pad, then stamping it on scrap paper first before stamping on the card. This will create a lighter shade of pink.
  5. Adhere the layers to the card.
  6. Add Rhinestones to the card.
  7. Stamp the greeting on the Polished Pink ink pad. Cut ends in a “V”.
  8. Cut ends of the Soft Succulent strip in a “V”, then add the greeting and the Soft Succulent strip on the card using Dimensionals.
