A pretty hummingbird card made using the A Touch of Ink Sale-A-Bration stamp set

A Touch of Ink

Here is a pretty card made using a stamp set called A Touch of Ink. This set is one of this years Sale-A-Bration level 2 offerings, available with a £90 order.

To recreate the touch of ink card, you will need:

Pretty Peacock card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” c
Whisper White – 5⅝” by 3⅞” – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded lower right corner
Oh So Ombre dsp – 5½” by 3¾” – rounded lower right corner
Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – rounded lower right corner
Dsp – 3¾” by 1”
Scrap Whisper White

I stamped the outline of the leaves onto the panel of Oh So Ombre dsp before gluing the panel to the larger piece of Whisper White. The panel was then added to the Pretty Peacock card base.

I added a 1” strip of co-ordinating dsp from my stash towards the bottom using the same Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

The pretty hummingbird was stamped on scrap Whisper White card using Basic Gray ink. I used the following Blends Markers to colour in the bird – Petal Pink, Pool Party. Pretty Peacock and Basic Black. The bird was then fussy cut using Scissors and added to the card front on Dimensionals.

The sentiment was stamped in Pretty Peacock ink onto scrap Whisper White card and the end flagged with scissors. I trimmed off the scallops from a piece of scalloped Linen Ribbon and added it to the back of the sentiment. The piece was added to the card front on Dimensionals.
