• Two background techniques on this pretty Kindest Expressions card

  July 10, 2023

  ---

  I made this card for our June Team swap; our theme was to create our own background.  I went a bit overboard but had a ton of fun making these!

  It features these products from our Annual Stampin' Up! catalog:

  1. Kindest Expressions stamp set
  2. Paper Florist dies
  3. Countryside Corners dies
  4. Blending Brushes
  5. Artistic Mix Decorative Masks
  6. Embossing paste Matte finish
  7. Adhesive-Backed sequins trio

  Whew!  And I didn't even list the ink and paper!  My colors include Berry Burst, Bubble Bath, Lemon Lime Twist and Basic White.

  • I used Berry Burst ink and a Blending Brush to create an ombre background on my Bubble Bath card stock. I let that dry overnight. 
  • I then used a mask over this to spread White Embossing Paste with a Palette knife.  Even though my ink was dry it picked up the color and created an ombre look on the paste too.  I let that dry for a few hours.
  • Add the greeting and the Paper Florist dies seen here.  I can tell that I'll be using these dies a lot.  They're wonderful and make a huge variety of flowers. 

  

  I LOVE how they turned out.  

  

  I'll be sharing my Flowerbug's Team swaps later this week.  Stay tuned!
