This is another card from yesterdays video and the background for this card is ink blending.
I started lightly in the middle and worked my way outwards fading the colour out even more as I went.
I have used Shaded Lilac in the Distress Oxides and then splattered the panel with gold.
It is a separate panel that has then been added to 5x7 card with foam tape to raise it up, and to leave a wide border around the edges.
The leaves have been cut in white, gold and some left over ink smooshed card using an assortment of leaf dies that I already have.
They have been arranged behind the ink blended and gold detailed butterfly. The wings have been left loose to give the appearance of fluttering on the card.
Good Morning Christina. What a lovely card today. I am loving the shading and the card is lovely. I keep my eyes open for this sort of card. One that's nice to look at but easy to do. I have 3 line dance classes all at different levels. And I make them all a birthday card ... so all included we have roughly 60 ladies between the three. This sort of card is just so nice to give them. And I get lovely comments back from them. So thanks to you Christina my ladies are so happy on their birthdays. Sending hugs 🤗 and best wishes to everyone . Please stay safe and well 🙏. Kind regards Ann Toppcards in Leeds

Beautiful, love the layering, great background!
ReplyDeleteWow! Such a simple background with so much impact. I love it! It made my mind full of thoughts of other ways to use this desing. White lilies with lily of the valley & a cardinal against a corresponding backdrop, for sympathy. Pointsettias & a dove for Christmas, or Sunflowers & lady bugs or bees for Happy Birthday, Congrats or any happy occasion.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing such a wonderful inspiration piece!
