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:

    1. Yana, your card creations are stunning! The sky in the house card is beautiful and the bird card is my favorite.

    1. Thank you so much for the inspiration. Especially the Welcome Spring card showing another way to use my favourite set in the collection!

    1. I would have used a little more color on the house…like painted the shutters. It looks a bit drab against that beautiful background.

    1. Magnifique série de cartes, j’adore les oiseaux et les fleurs.
      Très belle coloration.
