A Card To Say Hello Arched Wreath Card Idea +Squirell

Sending a card to say hello and another idea to create wreaths using dies by Spellbinders and Simon Says Stamp.

This time I used the following die sets:

Colouring

To add colour I used inks included in the Pawsitively Saturated Inks bundle here (these are included in the supplies list here or in the link below)

Adding colour to blank die-cuts using inks involves the same process as colouring with any medium.
You can add a light colour over the whole die-cut, then blend into it a medium shade to finish by adding dark ink colours to add shadows and contrast at the edges.
The size of the brush used is proportional to the size of the area you need to colour. This means using small brushes for small areas, and large brushes for large areas.
You can also use detail brushes, markers, and pencils to add little details.
For sparkle and shine, I always use Nuvo Crystal Glaze and some metallic embellishment.
