A Touch Of Ink Doily...

Have you seen the Square Vellum Doilies?  I love vellum, so I was a big fan from the beginning of these guys.  However...sometimes I don't want a square.  Easy fix!  I just cut off the corners, and now it's a fun circle!  Added the CUTE bird from the "Touch of Ink" Stamp Set that is FREE during Sale-A-Bration, and here's a fun card you can use for any occasion!  

Colors: Whisper White, Gray Granite, Bumblebee, Pool Party

Inks:  Gray Granite, Pool Party, VersaMark

Cardstock/Papers: Whisper White, Basic Black, Gray Granite, 2020-2022 In Color Designer Series Paper

Stamps: A Touch of Ink 

Tools: Brick & Mortar Embossing Folder, Heat Tool

Accessories: Opal Rounds, White Stampin' Embossing Powder, Snail Mail Twine Combo Pack, Square Vellum Doilies

What do you think?!  And can we talk about those Opal Rounds?!  These are in the January-June Mini Catalog...and they are FANTASTIC!!!  I love the delicate touch they add! 

In case you were wondering...the Brick & Mortar Embossing Folder is still a big fave of mine!  Add a little splattered ink for even more texture!  💗

I hope you enjoy this card!  Did you get everything you wanted from Sale-A-Bration yet?!  I hope so...but if not...let me know!  I would love to help!  Thank you so much for visiting!

Pierced Blooms Sketch...TGIF Challenge 303!!!

 It's FRIDAY!  And the TGIF Challenge I have for you today is a SKETCH challenge!  I love this kind of "challenge" because it isn't much of one!  Hee.  A sketch is a map that just guides you in your papercrafting journey!  😀  First up is the card I made!

I LOVE the Pierced Blooms Dies and coordinating stamp set, In Bloom.  When I saw the sketch challenge for this week, this In Bloom Bundle just jumped out at me.  So I went with it.  I had white blooms in my head, and I was going to make a mostly white card.  But I grabbed a piece of the Paper Blooms Designer Series Paper (that you can currently earn FREE during Sale-A-Bration!!!!) and this is the card that was born.  Hee.  Here are a couple pics of the details:

And finally...here is the sketch!!!

Now...I can't wait to see what you make!  Take this sketch, let it inspire you, and then come post your project over on the TGIF Challenge Blog!  I can't wait to see what you make!

Please let me know how I can help you or if you have any questions!  Would love to help you with all your papercrafting needs!  Thank you so much for visiting and I hope that you are glad that you did!
