Hey lovelies!I'm still working on building my birthday card stash back up at the moment and wanted to share this card I made using the adorable "Peek-A-Boo Scary Pals" stamp set from Avery Elle!

I started by cutting two panels from white card stock using Mama Elephant's "Basic Rectangles" Creative Cuts, I cut a small window in my smaller panel using Honey Bee Stamps' "Double Stitched Circles" Honey Cuts. I stamped my images with Gina K Amalgam Jet Black ink using my Misti stamping...

This die from Pink Fresh Studio is stunning and is so easy to use in a combination of card designs to really get your money worth out of it.

In the smaller panel I used part of the die from Avery Elle's "Focal Point Stripes" Elle-Ments to cut my striped window.

Hello there, it is Verity here from Pretty Little Button for the Bumbleberry Design team. I have a couple of cards today with a great technique for using your alcohol ink backgrounds up. I don't know about you, but I love to play around with my alcohol inks but I don't always have a project in mind when creating. Therefore, I collect a pile of backgrounds just waiting to be used and they are perfect for die cut inlay technique. Whatsmore, the Fine Bouquet from Altenew is stunning die that is perfect for it!
