Inked & Tiled Cross & Starburst Cards

The Inked & Tiled Punch Pack is a little different, so I tried to share some fun & clever ways to use the cross and starburst shape elements on my class cards. One of the cool ways it was intended to be used is for a quilt-like background and the Inked Botanicals Designer Series Paper has the perfect patterns for this technique!

Background Basics—I started by stamping the large Inked & Tiled floral image in Lost Lagoon ink onto a Lost Lagoon card base. Next, I used the Inked & Tiled Punch Pack to punch "x" shapes from three of the more monochromatic Inked Botanicals patterns and the star shape from three of the multicolored patterns. I adhered the shapes so they were interlocked like a puzzle, or quilt, onto a 3-3/4" x 2-3/4" piece of Very Vanilla cardstock. I layered that onto a 4" x 3" piece of Calypso Coral cardstock, then tied some Very Vanilla baker's twine around the layers. They are popped up with Dimensionals onto the card front.

Floral Focal Point—I used Stampin' Write Markers in Crushed Curry, Calypso Coral and Lost Lagoon to color directly onto the stamp, then stamp the colored image onto a Very Vanilla All That oval die-cut. It's popped up with Dimensionals.

Sweet Sentiment—I stamped an Inked & Tiled sentiment in Lost Lagoon ink onto Crushed Curry cardstock. Then, I punched it out with the cross punch shape and trimmed the top and bottom with Paper Snips. It's adhered with a combination of SEAL and Mini Dimensionals. I finished with a single Lost Lagoon Iridescent Pastel Gem.

The card kit will include supplies to create this card.

Two Cool—For my second card, I embossed a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Petal Pink cardstock with the crosshatch pattern from the Basics 3D Embossing Folders, an Online Store Exclusive. It's mounted onto a Petal Pink card base.

This time, I punched lighter colors of Inked Botanicals patterns from the crosses to give the background a lighter, pastel look. I spaced the shapes a little bit apart this time, which also changed the look. It's layered onto Pool Party and tied with the Petal Pink striped ribbon from the Ribbon Duo Pack.

Floral Focal Point—This time, I colored the flower with Petal Pink marker, then added Calypso Coral to the tips and dotted a few places around the flower. I like the two-two look! It's stamped onto a larger Very Vanilla All That die-cut label and popped up.

Sweet Sentiment—The sentiment is in Lost Lagoon again, stamped onto Petal Pink, punched and trimmed to a mini banner shape. Now that I look at it, this would be a lovely Valentine's or anniversary card, too! I added two small Iridescent Pastel Gems for some sparkle.
