The Brewed for You stamp set used for the Stamping Inkspirations Blog hop where our theme is monochrome

Brewed in Monochrome card

I have used the Brewed For You stamp set to make a sweet brewed in monochrome card.

Colours used in this project are:

 

To recreate the brewed in ombre card, you will need:

Crumb Cake card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored and folded at 4⅛”
Crumb Cake card – 5½” by 3¾”
Soft Suede card – 3⅜” by 2”
Very Vanilla card – 3” by 1½”
Gold Foil – 2” by 2”
Very Vanilla card – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside

 

I began by stamping the glass randomly all over the Crumb Cake panel in Crumb Cake ink. I wrapped some Very Vanilla Twine around the panel before it was added to the Crumb Cake card front using Mini Glue Dots. I wanted a little height but not as much as Dimensionals would give. Mini Glue Dots were the perfect compromise.

Hello and welcome to the Ink. Stamp. Share Blog Hop where we are showcasing a project we have been working on. I am sharing a mountain horizon scene made using the Horizon Dies.

Colours used in this card are:

 

To recreate the mountain horizon scene, you will need:

Garden Green card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored and folded at 4⅛”
Balmy Blue card – 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Basic White card – 5” by 3½”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾”
Scrap Basic White, Balmy Blue, Highland Heather & Garden Green

 

Using Blending Brushes, I added Balmy Blue ink to the top of the smaller Basic White layer and Sahara Sand ink to the bottom of the layer.

From scrap Highland Heather card, I die cut the mountain range using the Horizon Dies. Using the same des I cut the detailed snowy mountain tops and glued them together. I used Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive to glue this piece to the inked panel.
