The only crafting I have been doing lately is immediate gift/card items. I haven’t even been planning ahead for upcoming birthdays etc. In fact I actually {gasp} bought a birthday card for a party last month. Sigh.
At any rate it felt good to get down in my craft room and make something, even if it was atop a mile-high pile of mess on my table (reason #2 for not crafting right now).
Recipe
cardstock, stamps, punches: Stampin’ Up (separate image and text stamp sets)
ink: Ranger distress
ribbon: Ofray
Blend inks onto white cardstock, spritz with water and layer over card. Ink white ribbon and let dry. Ink up stamps for images, stamp off on scratch paper 2 times, then stamp for third time on white paper without reinking. Repeat with text stamps and stamp for third time over each image with different phrase. Punch out images. Stamp sentiment in full inking. Punch out. Adhere images, ribbon and sentiment to card.
