Good Morning everyone! Today I have a bright and colorful card for you. One thing about sheltering in place is it gives you a chance to work with art supplies you haven’t had a chance to. I’ve had these Zig Clean Color Brush Markers for awhile and haven’t used them much. This was a perfect time to pull them out and play.
I used waterproof black ink and stamped my flowers on a piece of watercolor paper. I did use a heat tool to set the ink so that it wouldn’t bleed when I added the marker. I really loved how the color went on and blended. Once I was done with the painting, I die cut the flowers.
Next I prepared a background to adhere my flowers to. I used a stencil, and sponged Peeled Paint Distress Oxide ink over the stencil. I sponged the left side of my card with a little more color, spritzed it with plain water and then spattered the background with black ink. Once this was dry, I glued my flowers to the background.
On a strip of black cardstock I stamped and white heat embossed the words “Happy Birthday” and used foam tape to adhere it to my card front.
I glued my card front to a black cardstock mat and used foam tape to adhere it to a white card base.
To finish the card I added some Black Nuvo drops. It was so much fun coloring these flowers!
Thanks for stopping by today!
