CARD IDEA
Recently I shared a video featuring Angled Ink Blending. I used the same technique to create a colorful background for this card. The colors of ink used for blending are Lemon Zing, Doll Pink, Magnolia, Deep Purple to create the sky; Sunshine to create the sun; Jellybean to create the grass.
The house image was colored almost white by using just W1 to add shading, W1, and W3 to add color and texture to the roof, and B000 to add blue to the windows. The shrubs were colored with YG01 and YG03; Y15 and RV00 were used to color the flowers.
MORE INSPIRATION
I have more cardmaking inspiration for you featuring products from the new release! Check out my Hello Spring card using the new Spring Birds stamp and dies set:
And coming to my blog and Youtube channel tomorrow – two cards featuring the Blooming Meadow stamps and dies, Slimline Beautiful You, and Welcoming stamps and dies.
You can also find additional inspiration in the Simon Says Stamp gallery.
