Good Afternoon Everyone,
Today I'm taking part in the 'We Fall in Colours' Blog hop.
As you know I love a good colour challenge, so this hop is perfect!
Honestly, this combination had me stumped for a little while. But I decide to use a Stamping block of ink, this gives a fabulous textured effect behind my image.
Measurements
Basic Black Card Stock
1pc - 4 1/8" x 11 3/4", scored at 5 7/8"
Basic White Card Stock
2pc - 3 3/4" x 5 1/2"
---------------------------------------------
Take the Basic Black card stock and fold along the score line to create your card base - adding one of the Basic White Pieces to the inside.
Bring in a rectangular block, open the ink pads and add ink directly to the block - adding a thick layer. I started in the Middle with Petunia Pop, then Daffodil Delight to the top and Cajun Craze to the bottom. Spitz on a little water and tilt the block around a little go get the colours mixing a little where they join - I didn't want solid lines where the colours met.
Now, turn the block around and stamp it onto the remaining piece of Basic white. I stamped it over to the left, trying to get an even edges all the way around. Weight it down with something ( i popped a punch on the top) and try not to move it for about 10 minutes.
Gently remove the block and the majority of the ink should have transferred to the paper.
Ink up the Floral image from Beautiful Gallery Bundle and stamp over the coloured block. I felt that the lines were too thin, so I took my Black Stampin Write marker and using the brush tip, I went over all the black ink lines to get a thinker lined image.
Add the sentiment to the right of the coloured block, lining it up with the bottom edge.
Pop this onto the card front using liquid glue.
I hope you have enjoyed my card today - i LOVED creating it.
Please take a few minutes to continue through the hop - Simone is up next - please go over and say hello
