This time I stamped in Versafine Clair Pinecone in opposite corners and used a sponge dauber to apply the white ink through the stencils. I heat set it and then began adding these Altenew inks: Fresh Lemon, Honey Drizzle, Orange Cream, Firebrick, Forest Glades and Hunter Green. Then I restamped to darken the lines softened by the white ink and splattered Altenew gold metallic watercolor. Hello Friend from the same set was stamped in Pinecone and clear embossed. Then I used the gold watercolor for emboss resist. The sentiment strip, also from the set, was stamped in Pinecone. I covered the flower centers in scattered straw Distress Stickles and added Altenew Antique Gold sequins. Think I'll save this for a Fall birthday. I'm also entering SSS Wednesday.

Altenew June Challenge
So happy to report that my strained muscle has greatly improved! It's no longer affecting what I can do. Here's the second card I made for the Altenew June Inspiration Challenge. I've been wanting to add color to kraft cardstock by first using white pigment ink. I used the same stamp with matching stencils as my first entry, Altenew's Sweet Bouquet.

ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty card with the colored stenciling over the white, Greta!!
ReplyDeleteGood to hear your range of motion is better. Love the coloring over the white pigment ink. Such a fun technique.
ReplyDeleteNot always easy colouring on Kraft but this has worked really nicely, the peachy colours compliment well with the base. Please there's some improvement, don't rush it.
