Emma has thought of it all! Along with Graduation we have Mother's Day too!
Get in the swing of things with our new Mother's Day Set! SWOON worthy!
I love ink blending and this card gave me a chance to play! I used inch wide washi or painter tape to make clean lines on my card base and then pulled out some pastel pretties that would blend together
nicely. I love how it turned out. Then I took the floral image from the set, stamped with Black Versa Ink, and dusted with clear embossing powder and heat set. CRAFTERS TIP: by using CLEAR embossing powder and black ink I don't have those pesky black dots that can come with black powder.
I find that I emboss more because my project looks more polished.
I also embossed the sentiment to make it more elevated. I stamped one floral image on scrap paper (of course embossed it as well and used the dies to cut it out perfectly) and used the same inks to watercolor the petals by using a water pen. I don't think it shows in the photo, but I added some Wink of Stella on the petals of the lone flower I die cut.
Cute card and so simple!
