Stampin’Up Expressions in Ink Idea
Hello everyone – I have a Stampin’Up Expressions in Ink Idea for you today.
I love playing with pretty paper for my cards. When I can combine the different patters from a collection to make a pretty card I am one happy girl. I was very happy when this card was finished.
The colors in this pattern paper do all the work for the card.
This paper is retiring in May so don’t miss it!
Check out how well the flower from Nature’s Harvest goes with this paper.
I have loved playing with this paper. This card uses the same green paper with a single flower for another pretty card idea. The Pale Papaya paper is the star of the show on this card.
The same cute image from the Nature’s Harvest set was used on the inside and the envelope. I did realize when I went to take the pictures that I stamped my image as a landscape card and it is portrait. lol
Want all the details for this card?
