Story of Elegance 

Hello and Welcome!  It’s Friday!  Hooray!  Well, I was planning to continue to share cards from last month’s card challenge today, but I’m gonna take a 1 post hiatus and share another card I made using the Boho Indigo Product Medley.   I REALLY like this product kit.  It’s outstanding!   I’ll continue with challenge cards next week.

I got the design for this card from one of the wonderful members of the InKing Royal Stampin’ Up! team.  Her name is Jackie Beers and she has fantastic cards that she shares on her blog.  You can find her at BlueLineStamping.com.  Check her out!  (After you’ve checked out this card, of course)

One more time – here’s a look at the products in the Boho Indigo Product Medley.

Boho Indigo Lever Card


It’s called a lever card because the lever that holds the sentiment is used to open the card.
