I have a new addition to my Distress Ink Blending Combination series for you today. I created a sky at a sunset and then I stamped a few silhouettes of birds. I used Distress inks for this background, you can use any other ink that blends well and if you do not have inks, you can use watercolours. The card stock I used for the blending is the Canson XL watercolour paper and I taped it to a board (a laminated card stock) using a washi tape. I really like to use this card stock as it's smooth and the ink blends very well. Next I started blending. The inks I used are: - Seedless Preserves - Picked Raspberry - mScattered Straw This is the exact order from top to bottom. I started with the Scattered Straw just because I only have one blending tool, which is a make up brush. This way, I only needed to clean the brush slightly before using the purple ink and because the pink and purple are similar, I only needed to clean the brush properly once, when applying the second layer. As I said here, I applied two layers of the ink to make the colours more vivid and during the second application I worked on blending the inks together. The main idea for this background was to add silhouettes of birds flying in the sky. First I wanted to paint them in with watercolours, but as Distress inks react with water I didn't want to risk it. I also thought about using a fine line, which is an option as well, but then I remembered that I have a stamp set with bird silhouettes and that's what I used to add the birds. Just simple stamping using a black ink. The greeting that I added says Congratulations and I heat embossed it on a black card stock using a white embossing powder. Since this is a handwritten greeting and I wanted to cut it into a banner, I decided to cut close to the letters, so it's not too bulky. I adhered it at the bottom of the card using a double-sided foam adhesive. Lastly I attached the panel onto a card base using a simple double-sided tape. The card base I made myself using a craft card stock. You can see a quick video of me making this card on my YouTube channel or Instagram and make sure you subscribe/follow.
