I absolutely love the new In Colors, so when I had to make a thank-you card for my sister-in-law and brother-in-law (hi Sonia and Vince!), those were the first colours I reached for. Â I already had the new Wow Flowers stamp set in mind for this card, and it worked out well. Â This stamp set makes it easy to make a nice card…you can make a great background with the flower stamp in seconds!
I used one of the label holders from the new Styled Silver Hodgepodge Hardware. Â It matches the Designer Label punch perfectly. Â Instead of using the brads (that are included in the kit) to attach it to the card, I used ribbon instead. Â This gives a completely different look than using the brads…I love it!
Since I don’t have any Baja Breeze ribbon (yet!), I used the Baja Breeze reinker to die some 1/4″ white grosgrain ribbon to match. Â (I hope to post a tutorial soon that will show you a couple of different ways to dye your ribbon!)
I used my new Scallop Edge Punch, and used my paper piercer to pierce each of the scallops at the bottom. Â Hope you are enjoying the new Catalogue & Idea Book as much as I am!
