Artistically Pink

I have been having fun playing with Blends Markers and Alcohol………such fun, add in the Inspiring Canopy Dies and I have one gorgeous inked canopy card.

Colours used in this project are:

 

To recreate the Inked Canopy card, you will need:

Thick Basic card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Basic Black card – 5⅝” by 3⅞”
Basic White card – 5⅜” by 3⅝” x 2, one for the inside
Vellum – 5⅝” by 3⅞”
Basic Black card – ½” strip

 

Using the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine and the Artistic Dies, I die cut the spray of leaves from the panel of Basic Black, taking care not to get close to the edges.

 

I used the following dark Blends Markers – Magenta Madness, Blackberry Bliss, Night of Navy and Fresh Freesia to scribble blocks of colour onto the Vellum. I dipped an almost empty Clear Wink of Stella Brush to splatter and dab 90% alcohol onto the Vellum allowing the ink to spread and pool. The panel was then set aside to dry.

 

When the Vellum was dry, I trimmed off ¼” from the side and the bottom to decorate the inside panel and the envelope. The Vellum was then added to one the Basic White panels using tiny dabs of Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

 

The panel was then added to the Basic Black panel using the same liquid glue. I used Dimensionals to add the panel to the Magenta Madness card base.

 

The sentiment from the Artistically Inked stamp set was stamped in Versamark ink onto the strip of Basic Black card. I covered it with White Embossing Powder and heat set it with a Heat Tool. I flagged the end and added the sentiment to the card front with liquid glue.

 

I love this card; The colours work so well together and I especially love the slight sparkle the Clear Wink of Stella has given to the Vellum. So pretty.

 

Such a striking card, I hope you like it.
