Welcome to the Remarkable InkBig Blog Hop for March 2018. This month our theme is “Last Call for Sale-A-Bration,” and I couldn’t wait to get my hands on the new Springtime Foils Specialty Paper.
You may just be starting the blog hop here at my blog, Su Mohr, or may have come from the person previous to me in the list. If you get off track at any time, the full lineup below will help you move along from blog to blog so you see all the projects.
The UPS man showed up today with my most recent Sale-A-Bration order. The second release of Sale-A-Bration items included some gorgeous Foils, and I’ve been seeing some fabulous projects using these papers. It didn’t take long for me to put my project together.
Springtime Foils, Birds and Babies
I love the way this Springtime Foil looks with Smoky Slate cardstock, so that was my beginning. Then, the branches seemed to call for some birds, and I found them in the Birds & Blooms die set.
I cut Mama bird from Silver Glimmer Paper, and Baby bird from Gold Foil. Thoughts of mamas and babies turned this into an elegant baby card.
“Hello Baby” is from the Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set, and I stamped it in Basic Black ink on the Springtime Foil Paper. I used the Classic Punch for cutting, and popped it up on Mini Dimensionals.
I’m really liking my shiny birds. Mama bird is reminding me of a Swarovski piece of jewelry. Baby bird needed to match the gold leaves.
Now that this was a baby card, it called for Gingham Ribbon in the matching Smoky Slate. How about that! I photographed this last picture with the Copper dotted Springtime Foil.
The last thing I did was decorate the envelope flap with dotted Smoky Slate Designer Series Paper. The envelope is showing in the first picture with the Silver Striped Springtime Foil in the background.
