This card is for the June Art Impressions Card Contest - golden oldies. AI has so many fun images! I used a combination of inks, markers and paper piecing with design papers to make this card. This card is 4" x 6".
- Inked up image with black distress ink pad and stamped on glossy card stock. Allowed to
dry.
- Decided which parts of the image I wanted to use the design papers on.
- Used a small paint brush with various ink pads. I also dipped my brush in water to help spread color. I was not sure if it would work on the glossy card stock, but it did!
- To add color in small places, or to fill in for ink pads I did not have, I used markers.
- Added some detail with drawing pen.
- To give some grounding to the party group, I used a stipple brush and gray ink pad.
- I stamped the sentiment last with VersaFine and used a stamp positioner for placement.
