I  am excited to participate in another International blog hop this March. I always enjoying seeing creative minds create the most beautiful cards. This month is no exception, don't forget to hop along and check out everyone else's creations and vote for your top 5. 

I had the privilege of creating a thank you card for all the guests that attended the 59th anniversary of some dear friends. I cased a beautiful card from Alisa Tilsner to create these. 




I knew I didn't have enough of one paper to create all the cards I needed so I created a different colour options with the same design. I used the Dry Brushed Metallic DSP and it turned out just stunning. Do not underestimate this DSP, go grab some as it goes along way! 



I will say, maybe think about your design before mass producing. I think I had to do 300 individual die cuts and glue them all together along with over 30 embossing and 60 fussy cut flowers! You can say this was a labour of love for good friends! 



In total I made just over 30 and it took me all week to create them. What you can't see is that I also decorated the inside with the couples wedding photo and a personal message from the family. The inside also included more fussy cut flowers and strips of DSP. 




I really had fun making these cards and I am so happy that they all went to loving homes! 
As I mentioned earlier this is just one of many cards created in a Blog Hop this month, please go check out everyone else's and place your vote on your favourite Top 5!

  Thank you for stopping by today. Trish and I have created another Crazy Challenge #18 and this time it is a colour challenge. I am in love with this card and I think I will be making a few more just like this! Head over to my Instagram Hop to get more inspiration from everyone that took part. 



As of January this year we have decided to extend our Crazy Challenges to 2 a month instead of one. Keep a watch on my Instagram for each fortnights challenge so you can play along. 



I have not used masking very often but after trying it on this card I think it will be a regular on my cards. Stamp your image onto masking tape and cut out as precisely as you can. Place this tape over your first stamped image to allow you to stamp over the image slightly and create a bouquet effect with your flowers without the ink overlapping. This gives your image a cleaner more 3D look. 



If you would like any of the items used in todays project head to links below. Also don't forget to head over to my Instagram post and Hop Along to receive more inspiration. If you would like any of the products featured in toady's card I have listed them below.

Product List

 


Inspirations In Ink Monthly Blog Hop - This month we wanted to teach you technique! There is no specific bundle used but instead we each used a different product to show you what you can achieve. I was asked to use blender pens. Now I love these cause they give me more freedom to do what I want when it comes to colouring in.


Colouring on light coloured cardstock is great when using blender pens. You are able to make the colours pop more as you have control of how much ink you use on the cardstock. White embossing with detailed stamps gives you a great base to colour in.
