Are you a fan of Crumb Cake cardstock?  It’s one of my very favorite neutrals.  While it changes the colors of ink stamped on it, there are things you can do to make them more vibrant.  Today I create my own DIY opaque ink to color with.  The results are lovely!

It’s a cloudy day here, so the shimmer doesn’t show up well in the photos, but the entire card shimmers and shines.

Starting with the neutral colors of cardstock and designer series paper allows you to choose whichever colors you want to paint the flowers with.

Don’t you love the two specialty background dies?  I would love to use the eyelets on a baby card…in fact that may show up in a few days!  I have some ideas for using the circles on my upcoming Create With Us tutorial.  Such fun to mix and match dies with other bundles.
