Friends Card with Kaylee
Hello everyone, just love playing with the Blooming Friendship collection. With this card I wanted to try painting the flower with alcohol inks on watercolour paper - I love how smooth the ink went on.
I started by stamping the flower with the burgundy re-inker, die-cut it out and painted it. With the lighter ink I coloured the outside edge of the petals first, then the middle of the petal with the medium colour, finishing up with the darker colour in the centre.
Next up I laid/taped a mask made from ripping copy paper over the card front for the border edge and blended these 2 colours in this area.
Next, embossed the brick stamp to the card front and the sentiment onto acetate.
I mounted the flower onto cardboard the glued to cardfront. I used the clear quick dry glue to adhere the acetate strip.
Finished. If I could only capture the glitter/shine of the flower - it looked very pretty.
