Here is a sneak peak of this week’s release:
Here is the card I made for today’s hop.
This release has some great birthday sentiments and this Hugs Kisses and Wishes is one of my favorite.
I started with some Bristol Smooth paper, my favorite for ink blending, and took out my stencil brushes. I wanted to lighter inked look and the stencil brushes allow for a softer blended look. I masked off a the outer sections of my card and blended Distress Oxides in Shaded Lilac, Peacock Feathers, and Cracked Pistachio. I then added water drops and lifted some of the ink off with a paper towel.
Once the ink was dry, I used Versafine ink and WOW Black Glint Embossing powder for the Moon Fairy. I love how elegant she looks and she’s perfect for this sentiment.
I added the sentiment with Versafine ink and heat embossed it with Clear Sparkle embossing powder for extra “wish” shine. I finished my card with some sequins.
