How to Say Thank You with Stampin’ Up! Inked Botanicals

Create a Thank You Card with Inked Botanicals Suite Collection from Stampin' Up! Card by Mary Fish, Stampin' Pretty

The pretty floral images in today’s thank you card will make you feel like a stamping pro. They are soft, artful and remind me of pressed flowers. They landed of the list of My Favorite Things for the 2023-2024 Annual Catalog.

WHAT I LOVE ! Luscious layering of Inked Botanicals designer series paper steps up the texture and style of this card. A coordinating Lost Lagoon 1/4″ Bordered Ribbon and a Lost Lagoon Tinsel Gems Three-Pack dot are the finishing touches.

NEED COLOR INSPIRATION? The colors used on this card are based from the color combination shown below, one of five that I shared on Tuesday’s post.

Layer and adhere with the two pieces of Inked Botanicals Designer Series Paper as shown with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Wrap with Lost Lagoon 1/4″ Bordered Ribbon, securing to the back with Stampin’ Seal.
