Hello!
Summer means stamping when I can. When a cold front hits North Carolina and the humidity disappears for a few days, it's time to be outside! The weather has been just wonderful and I took every opportunity to enjoy it.
Today I created a birthday card which began with an ink blended background.
Papertrey Ink came out with a new product called Color Blocked Stencils which I explored for this card, sponging the triangle areas then stamping the chevron pattern over them in darker ink. It's a great way to pare down the layers on a card for mailing and was just plain fun! Especially if you like ink blending as much as
I do.
I paired it with some die cut flowers, a bold sentiment, and a few glittery enamel dots.
That's all for me today, I have one more card to share with you tomorrow. Hope you are enjoying a wonderful day. Thanks for your visit!

ReplyDeleteI love how you play with your stamps and supplies. You inspire me, especially when I'm off to a slow start after being on vacation (again). Once I get going it's hard to pull myself away. Pretty design and colors on this, and love the big sentiment popping white on black on white.
