Hi everyone!
Welcome to another...
If you are here from the Really Reasonable Ribbon's Ramblings blog, you are in the right place! If you just happened onto my blog, head back there to start from the beginning. You don't want to miss a thing!
Besides the hop, I have something else fun going on. I have 6 brand new Inky Antics stamp sets and a new paper line debuting this weekend in Anaheim, CA at CHA!
Not a ribbon club member? CLICK HERE to see how to get a beautiful set of assorted ribbons delivered to your mailbox every month! :)
For my first card, I chose to use the solid pink satin ribbon from the set with images and sentiments from my #11155MC Swirly Bird Inky Antics Clear Stamp Set, and my #IA-PAC0003 "Everything's Coming Up Roses" designer paper.
I colored the images with Prismacolor Pencils and gamsol, then added the little white dots with a Sakura Gelly Roll pen.
I popped up parts of the birds using a different technique than I usually use. Here are a few pictures to show how I did it.
For my second card, I used the iridescent white ribbon from the set.
I just love how it sparkles so I added lots of sparkle to my card to match.
The cardstock again is from Discount Card Stock and the Purple Rhinestones from Want2Scrap.
I created the swirly background paper by embossing some brilliant White cardstock, inking the raised areas with yellow ink, then adding some Art Glitter over that.

The stamp set I used for this one is my #11159MC Sunshine and Flowers clear set from Inky Antics.
These stamp sets will be available tomorrow at Inky Antics.
