Demonstrator Training Blog Hop - Country Floral TIEF

Hello crafty friends!! Welcome to Kylie Bertucci's training group blog hop for March 2019. We are a world-wide group of Stampin' Up! demonstrators working with Kylie from Australia to learn more about improving our Stampin' Up!! businesses.  Make sure to visit the other demonstrators in the hop for some great inspiration.

My card today was inspired by a great Australian Demonstrator and my friend Mandy Witherby and it features the Country Floral Textured Impressions Embossing Folder (TIEF) that is free (yes, FREE) with a qualifying purchase during Sale-A-Bration.  Enjoy!!!

Measurements:

Poppy Parade base 5 1/2 x 4 1/4

Whisper White embossed layer 5 1/4 x 4

Whisper White sentiment  2 x 4

Whisper White liner 5 1/4 x 4

Ink:

Poppy Parade, Melon Mambo,

Mango Melody, Granny Apple Green

---

TIP:  I applied ink to embossed flowers and leaves on the card with sponge daubers.  It does not have to be neat this is a very carefree ink application.  I also used the sponge daubers and Poppy Parade ink to add color to the Whisper White 5/8" Flax Ribbon.  This method allowed me to control the intensity of the ink and to have it look faded in some areas and darker in others.  The flax ribbon takes ink really well, so it is possible to make any color ribbon you need.
