Stampin’ Up! Artistically Inked Hello Card

Good Morning! Today’s Hello card is made with the beautiful Stampin’ Up! Artistically Inked bundle and the gorgeous Expressions In Ink specialty designer series paper. With colorful alcohol ink designed backgrounds that have touches of gold, this DSP is perfect for making beautiful, yet simple and easy cards. You can find the supplies I used at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

I adhered a panel of Expressions in Ink specialty DSP to the front of a Melon Mambo card base. I applied some adhesive sheets to the back of a Basic White panel and cut out the large flower die from the Artistic dies in the Stampin’ Up! Artistically Inked bundle. I pulled off the adhesive backing and adhered the floral die cut to the card front.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Artistically Inked cling stamp set in Versamark ink on a Melon Mambo panel. I sprinkled it with white embossing powder and shook off the excess. I heated the powder with my heat tool until it was shiny and cut it out with one of the fancy Tailor Made Tags. I cut another tag from Gold Foil and adhered it to the back.

I looped lengths of white crinkle and Flirty Flaming metallic ribbons through the holes and tied it with gold trim. I adhered the tags to the card front with dimensionals.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the triple flower stamp from the Stampin’ Up! Artistically Inked stamp set in Melon Mambo in the corner of a Basic White panel. I trimmed the bottom with a strip of DSP and adhered the panel to the inside of the card.

The stamps in the Stampin’ Up! Artistically Inked bundle are gorgeous and the sentiments are ones that you’ll use over and over. And aren’t the die cuts just gorgeous?
