Hello my friends! I had fun getting inky this weekend with a new challenge! I had an idea for a card in my head but when I was flipping through stamp sets I came across this never-been-inked set from Lil ‘Inkers and changed direction completely! I love when that happens!
The Details:
- White card base cut to 4 1/4″ x 11″, scored at 5 1/2″
- Enchanted Evening card stock card stock cut to 4 1/8″ x 5 3/8″
- Pattern Paper cut to 4″ x 5 1/4″
- White card stock cut to 3 3/4″ x 5″
It was super fun to play with all of the “inky” blooms in this set, throwing another one here or there while staying within the guidelines of the sketch. I used Spring Rain for the flowers and Soft Stone for the three random dots stamp that I used on yesterday’s card as well. I’m on a bit of a tear to “bash my stash” so I found three darling itty bitty buttons and attached them with glue dots.
And the inside. I forgot AGAIN to snap a photo of the stamping I did to the front of the envelope as well (insert mad face). Oh well, next time!
Today’s card was inspired by the Paper Players sketch…thanks Leanne, it’s a sketch with LOTS of possibilities!
Thanks for stopping by today!!

I love the soft, subtle effect you’ve created with those pretty florals and how nicely the sentiment stands out….very pretty and thoughtful! Thanks so much for playing with my Paper Players sketch this week!♥
Lovely card today. The flowers floating down your page is a perfect interpretation for this sketch. I love that your card is so clean without layers of paper.
