Welcome to this month’s hop! I’m excited to share with you some of my picks for “must have” new catalog products! In fact, for this hop, I decided to just focus on one gorgeous suite, the Expressions In Ink Suite.
This first card features the Expressions In Ink Specialty Designer Series Paper and the gorgeous Artistic Dies – both are part of the Expressions in Ink Suite. I also used the new Pretty Flowers embossing folder on the card which was another must have for me! I have a video below on how to make this fun angle card – it is simple to do! But first, here is another angle card..
…that is also made with the Expressions In Ink Suite. Even the adhesive backed sequins that I used on this card are from the Ephemera pack that comes in the suite! The leaves are also from the Artistic Dies – it is actually a branch of 8 leaves which I cut apart in sets of two so that I could make 4 cards from one die cut. Additional details in the video!

I designed the card above for the Stampin’ Up! Maui Incentive Trip card swap. I’m actually in Maui right now being pampered and spoiled by Stampin’ Up! – it is absolutely delightful! I feel so blessed and thankful to my customers and team for helping me earn this amazing 9 day trip to paradise!
This photo shows everything in the Expressions In Ink Suite. Photos do not do this beautiful paper justice – but I will try on the two cards below!
No die cutting on this card – the gorgeous paper and the Expressions In Ink Ephemera pack are the star of the show! The Gold Foil precut pieces are part of the Ephemera pack – so easy to punch out and add to the card! The ink pad and layering cardstock are Shaded Spruce.
This card uses the same products as the card above except I used the Magenta Madness ink for this version. I have a short video below on how to make this stunning card.
It was supposed to be a 5 minute card, but that did not work out for me – lol (it took me 8 minutes)! And the entire video is just over 12 minutes. I hope it inspires you!
Of course, it’s always fun to custom stamp the envelope to match – I love this big “ink splotch” stamp!
