Hello, Friends!

I’m joining BreAnn Loveland today on Instagram for a hop celebrating The Ink Stand! If you’re not familiar, The Ink Stand makes and sells stands for ink pads in all sizes. It’s a handy tool to have and I really love being able to support crafty friends and small businesses. These products are conveniently sold at Simon Says Stamp and I use them all the time. For today’s project, I am sharing a card made using Tim Holtz’s Seasonal Sketch die set.

I started by die-cutting all the pieces from the Seasonal Sketch die set using Simon Says Stamp cardstock. The outline pieces are all die-cut from Matte Gold Cardstock. I used Green Leaf for the holly, Lipstick Red for the berries, and Cotton Candy for the poinsettia.

Next, I ink-blended all the colored cardstock with a coordinating ink using Distress Oxide Inks in Rustic Wilderness, Festive Berries, and Aged Mahogany. The Simon Says Stamp Small Blending Brushes are perfect for smaller die-cuts like this and The Ink Stands making ink-blending easy because it frees up your non-dominant hand because you’re not using it to hold your ink pads.

For the background, I stamped and embossed the Sketch Greenery foliage onto some Cotton Candy cardstock using Rustic Wilderness Embossing Glaze embossing powder. Then, I ink-blended the panel at the center and faded out to the natural cardstock color using Festive Berries Distress Oxide Ink. I splattered the panel with white paint before adhering the die-cut Seasonal Sketch pieces. To finish, I attached a sentiment stamped and embossed from the Sketch Greenery set.

I hope you like it! Again, this project celebrates The Ink Stand with an Instagram Hop – be sure to head there to see more inspiration from all over using fabulous ink stands! Thanks so much for stopping by today.
