This Hello card uses the Magic in this Night Designer Series Paper. I don’t really like to use Black cardstock or prints except for Halloween. So I added some Gorgeous Grape and now I really like this print.

~Rub the inked sponge over your DSP until the purple color is the way you want it.
~Also sponge around your die cut Label.
Finish Your Card:
~Decide where you want your Ribbon and Label to go.
~I always use a Strip of Stampin’ Seal across the front and back of my card front to keep the ribbon in place. I really need to make a video demonstrating this…
~So, put on your ribbon and tie a bow.
~Attach your Label with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
~Now attach your DSP layer to your card base.
Your Hello Card is finished.
