Hello and welcome to the Ink. Stamp. Share Blog Hop where we have a Tic Tac Toe board to inspire us. I have chosen – Patterned Paper, Fun Fold and Ribbon/Twine to make my card.
Colours used to make this card are:
I created the beautiful violet fun fold card using the following supplies:
Peaceful Pine card base – 11” by 4⅛” scored at 2⅛”, 4¼” and 5½” on the long side
Peaceful Pine – 4⅛” by 3⅜”
Basic White – 3⅞” by 1⅛”
Violet Dreams dsp – 3¾” by 1”
Basic White – 4⅛” by 4”
Violet Dreams dsp – 3⅞” by ⅝”
Highland Heather – 3¾” by 3”
Basic White – 3⅝” by 2⅞”
Scrap Basic White
Fold and burnish the centre scoreline then fold the other two scorelines backwards. Glue the 3¾” by 1” piece of Violet Dreams dsp to the panel of Basic White card measuring 3⅞” by 1⅛”. This can be added to the 1¼” section by the centre scoreline.

I wrapped a length of Fresh Freesia Ribbon around the dsp panel, securing it on the back with Tear and Tape before gluing the decorated panel to the back of the card to form the book fold portion.

I glued the remaining strip of Violet Dreams dsp on the right-hand side of the 4⅛” by 4” piece of Basic White card. This piece was then glued to the inside of the card.

The 4⅛” by 3⅜” panel of Peaceful Pine card was then glued to the top flap to form the Z fold portion of the card.

I stamped the cluster of violets with Secret Sea ink onto the 3⅝” by 2⅞” piece of Basic White card. The image was coloured in using the following Blends Pens – Light & Dark Highland Heather, Light Golden Glow and Light & Dark Peaceful Pine. I used a Blending Brush to add a little Fresh Freesia ink to the background to help ‘ground’ the image. The stamped panel was then adhered to the Highland Heather layer and then to the Peaceful Pine Z fold flap.

The sentiment was stamped on scrap Basic White card and die using the Stylish Shapes Dies. I ran it through twice to make the label slightly smaller. It was added to the card front.
