My next card was also inspired by another crafter: Vicky H. I love masking an area for ink blending & stamping. However, I don't think I've ever done it just in a corner like Vicky did for this card--see it at the end of this post. I used a white scrap trimmed to a 3 3/4 inch square & brushed on Distress Oxides faded jeans & speckled egg.Then I stamped a snowflake from HA Enjoy the Seasons & a sentiment from HA Happiness Messages using the faded jeans. The panel was heavily spritzed with Shimmer Spray--so pretty in person. I inked the edges of a 4x4 square card with faded jeans & decided against embellishments. I'm entering ABNH, SSS Wednesday & Stamplorations CAS.
I probably won't post again this year, but I do wish all of you a safe New Year's celebration & a healthy, crafty 2021.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful blending, I have a pile of thank you cards in front of me that I should be writing right now! It is easy to make them but hard to write them I find. Your cards will be very well received as they are all stunning xx
ReplyDeleteHow lovely to be inspired by other creative crafters and adapt their style to create something stunning of your own. Two lovely cards - I especially like the masked off and then blended card; simple and effective. Happy New Year Greta.
