Create this eye-catching scene with ink and blending brushes; video tutorial too!

Here's another card I created on last week's video. Do you love colorful scenes too? 

Save

Here I used Cloud Cover cardstock for my base; scored it an extra time to create a flap near the center. This is a great way to add the main element of your card.  In this case it's a stamped and colored tree scene on our new Party Banner dies.  

I found the Peaceful Pier stamp set seen here to be perfect for my scenes. It's a great line-art set you don't have to color in, as you can see in my example.

I used these inks for blending; from bottom to top – Granny Apple Green, Calypso Coral, Daffodil Delight and Cloud Cover. Blending brushes make it easy to add ink smoothly. But there are tricks to it!  

Below is the video tutorial on how to add ink smoothly with Blending Brushes.  I hope you watch it!

• A unique Puzzle Slider fun fold card with video & free project sheet

  May 13, 2024

  ---

  I shared this neat fun fold card on last week's Tuesday Live video. Every Tuesday at 11 am CT I host a live class on my Facebook page here.  If you're not on Facebook I upload them to my YouTube channel here too. 

  It's called a Puzzle Slider fun fold card

  Save

  It's quite easy to make & I share how to cut & score and assemble it on my video here.  Or scroll down a bit for the free project sheet you can save & print. 

  I chose our new Petunia Pop card stock for my card base & front layer. The pretty designer paper is called Thoughtful Journey and can be seen here. 

  Save

  The greeting image and die-cuts are part of the Unbounded Love bundle seen here.  It's my top favorite bundle in the new catalog. 

  Save

  I created a template for the front two puzzle layers of the card. The card base is 9 1/2" X 4 1/4" score at 1" & 2" from each end.
