I was so excited to see the new Springtime Foils specialty designer paper option with the 2nd go-around of Sale-a-bration! What lovely paper!! It features 4 different patterns of foils/metallics, my favorite being this floral pattern embossed with copper.
I know what you may be thinking — I don’t remember seeing this colored paper in the flyer … and where did that ribbon come from??!! Well … so glad you mentioned that!!!
I love our new blends markers — they’re so versatile for coloring. In this case, I colored both the designer paper AND the ribbon!! I used the light olive blend and the light navy blend to color the paper, then used the light navy blend marker again to color the vanilla/gold metallic-edged ribbon. Now, this opens a whole new world of ribbon options!!
Pictured above, I show you a closer view of the colored ribbon. Isn’t it so beautiful?! And yes, I still love the paper too!! I picture a copper cross centered on the card above, replacing the sentiment, perhaps making a beautiful Easter card!! Stay tuned … I may have that for you later this week!!
Thanks for stopping by!! I hope you enjoyed this quick new tip! There are several colors of blends markers, both light and dark, opening up a whole new possibility of ribbon. Have fun experimenting! Hopefully, Stampin’ Up! will have more options in upcoming catalogs!!
