Perched in a Tree Ink Blending sunset technique

I can't get enough of the Perched in a Tree bundle!  We made these cards at my August Card Clubs this month: 

Perched in a Tree Aug Club. Save

They had the choice of adding the bird or a set of die-cut, colored leaves.  We added color to both with our Blending Brushes using Crumb Cake & Balmy Blue for the bird and Bermuda Bay & Mango Melody on the leaves.  

The greetings are from the Soft Seedlings stamp set stamped on a 1" X 4 1/4" Vanilla CS strip.

If you have trouble getting a smooth Ink Blending background please watch the video to catch my tips.  

From the top down I used these colors:  Bermuda Bay, Mango Melody & either Balmy Blue or Crumb Cake on the bottom.  You might think I used a yellow color on the upper right card but it's just very light Mango Melody.

The Aspen dies are available in three ways – in the Bundle at a 10% discount, separately from the Perched in a Tree stamp set or free during August & our Sale-a-Bration promotion. 

*Best buy: purchase the Perched in a Tree bundle in August and choose a $50 Sale-a-Bration choice for free!  See them all here.

    What do you think?  I know some people aren't into bamboo or this Asian style but it's so my style!  I call this type of set a 'scene builder' which inspires me to use techniques to create unique backgrounds.  

    Bamboo Beauty blues Save

    I'm focusing on this card today.  The colors are Misty Moonlight, Black & White with a touch of purple.  I used Fresh Freesia on the upper left card and Highland Heather on the right. I used our Blending Brushes for the background, black twine from the Essentials pack and a greeting label from the Messages die.
