the cardmaking process
For all the cards in this post:
- I stamped images and sentiments on Arches Watercolour paper using Versafine Black Onix Ink.
- To add colours to the images, I used Zigs ( water-based markers).
- For the backgrounds, I tore a piece of printer paper and I used the torn uneven edges as a mask over the coloured panel.
- Then, I applied Distress inks over this DIY mask using blending brushes.
- I didn’t mask the images, I just avoided going over them with the blending brushes.
- Next, I mixed distress Inks with water and I splatter the mix over the panels.
- To finish, I added Nuvo Sunset Yellow Butterflies or sequins
- I also applied Nuvo Shimmer Pen.
You can make cards, tags, boxes, memory books or anything else using these beautiful stamps.
