How to use ink to create this pretty Evening Evergreen Elegant Box

I love the new Scalloped Kraft boxes, with pretty Gold foiled dots. However, did you know you can colour the boxes with your inks?

Take a blending brush and add the ink little by little so you get a consistent colour across the box. Once you have a consistent layer of ink across the box, then take a piece of kitchen roll and wipe across each section to remove the excess ink on the gold foiled dots. Thats it!

Just set aside for 5-10 minutes to allow the ink to fully dry & then decorate

Decorate Your Evening Evergreen Elegant Box

Have you seen the luxurious NEW Simply Elegant Speciality Designer Series Paper. I have to say it is absolutely gorgeous and includes copper, gold & silver foiling WOW!!!!

You can also use the same technique to add colour to your patterned papers. Here I have added colour around the edges of the paper

To help it pop add another layer of gold foil sheet.

Add some of the lovely new matching open weave ribbon and tie in a bow. To finish punch an Elegant Tag in the Evening Evergreen and heat emboss the flower and sentiment from the NEW Elegantly Said Stamp Set, which you can bundle and save 10% when purchased together.

Punch another tag in Gold Foil before mounting onto the box with Dimensionals.

To finish add some Gilded Gems

Voila!
