It’s release day! Head over to the shop and pick up your favorites or add it to your wish list! There are some really cute products in this release, as always. 🙂
For my inspiration today, I made a fairly simple card showcasing an inky background. With backgrounds like this, I think the background is so busy that the other elements should be minimal.
STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS
- On distress watercolor paper, create an inky background using distress ink sprays. I can’t remember the exact colors I used, but I used yellow, orange, and gold mica spray. Instead of spraying directly on a panel of cardstock, I sprayed the color on my glass mat, picked it up with a scrap piece of acetate, and smooshed it on a my cardstock. Make sure to dry between layers to get that layered look.
- After the panel was dry, die cut with Peek-a-Boo Honeycomb Die-namics. Keep some of the hexagons that fall out.
- Adhere the die cut panel on top of another panel of white cardstock that was ink blended with yellow ink unevenly.
- Adhere some of the negative hexagons with foam tape randomly throughout the background.
- Stamp and copic color a gnome and bees from Buzzing with Happiness. Die cut with the coordinating die-namics.
- Adhere the images to the card front.
- Stamp a sentiment from the set on yellow cardstock and die cut with a banner die from Blueprints 25.
- Die cut another banner from Springing for Houndstooth Paper Pad.
- Adhere the banners together on the card front.
