Welcome to Paper Inkspirations!



Hi! My name is Krissy, welcome to my blog. I have been an avid paper-crafter for many years, my addiction started with scrapbooking and has evolved to card-making. It all started when I realized that I had forgotten to buy a card for my nephew's birthday. Looking at my ever-expanding collection of scrapbook supplies, I thought I'd made a card for him. Since then, I've been hooked on card-making and my scrapbooks have been collecting dust. Someday I'll get back to them... I have two beautiful boys and a wonderful & supportive husband and I work at the Preschool at our church. When I'm not spending time with my family or making cards, I enjoy being active in our church. Life is good! Thanks for stopping by, I hope you enjoy your visit.

Take time to get inky today....

Shine Brightly

I'm back again today with another Inspirational Christmas card featuring Stampendous products.  Today's cards used the super sweet Shepherd Star stamp set. While I was making this card, I realized that I didn't have any gold card stock.....so, I made my own!  I inked the edges of a piece of card stock with VersaMark ink and sprinkled on Detail Gold Embossing Powder and heat set it. Super easy!  I love the sentiment that is included with this set, to highlight it a bit, I stamped the star in gold behind the sentiment.  

All of the supplies used to make this card are available at Michaels.


Be sure the check out the Stampendous blog this week to see what other Inspirational Christmas ideas the design team has to share with you.  

Take time to get inky today!
