May Your Days be Merry & Bright

Make It Monday #140

Ink Pad Designs

Ashley showed two cards using the uniquely shaped PTI ink pads to color 

the cardstock on her cards. I used little cat eye ink pads, using a mask to keep

it inside the circle. The die cut wreath was stamped with violet ink, leaves

colored with a silver Sharpie and purple/violet Sharpies for the berries. Then a spray

coat of the Shimmer Spritz to make it shiny. I added the ribbon to make it more like

a Christmas ornament mounting it on a silver A2 card.
