Hi readers! Happy Wednesday to you! We’re back to give you a SPOT of inspiration on the blog today with the lovely Caryn Davies who is also a designer on our Wednesday Challenge team! There is a new challenge today, so please be sure to check that out!

Do you like that fun stacking tea cup affect on Caryn’s card with the cups from Avery Elle’s Tea Time stamp set? Be sure to tune into her video to see her clever idea to achieve this look! I love how she two toned the woodgrain paper and used a piece vertically and horizontally too! Enjoy!

Hi everyone, It’s Shari here with the beautiful May 2015 Card kit. The Happily Ever After kit is packed full of gorgeous papers, stickers  and more for all your wedding card making needs. The Congratulations stamp set has a hand lettered greeting along with other messages of love and marriage.  We’ve also included a new hand selected color ink pad Pale Blush Pink to coordinate with the My Mind’s Eye Fancy That papers and stickers.

I’ve created a quick card using the kit items. You’re just going to love this new ink color and how well it coordinates to pull everything together!!!

I’ve shot a video of the walkthrough along with a quick explanation of the card. You can view it below or on our YouTube channel.

The stamp set that coordinates with the kit is called Congratulations and Pale Blush Pink Ink are also available as a separate purchase.
