Stampin' Up Expressions in Ink in Pink

Stampin’ Up Expressions in Ink in Pink

Hello Everyone – I have a very colorful card for you today with the Stampin’ Up Expressions in Ink in Pink idea.

I love pink so whenever I can papercraft with it I am very happy. I smiled the whole time I was making this card as it is just so cheery!

The black really helps the pink pop. I love the banner of pattern paper as an element to add interest. Check out the blog post for the Stampin' Up Expressions in Ink in Pink card.

This beautiful paper will be gone in 9 days. Make sure you get a pack of it for your papercrafting projects!

This close up shows some of the great details of this card.

The stamp set had a great image that is perfect for decorating the inside of the card and the envelope.

This image is found in the beautiful pattern paper. Don't miss seeing the blog post for the Stampin' Up Expressions in Ink in Pink card. It is a gorgeous idea for this pattern paper.

I used this paper with a Paper Pumpkin kit a year ago. This card uses the pink watercolor pattern paper with the gold die cut. Look at how the same pattern paper is the star of this card.
