Morning everyone! It's another hot one here today. We are going over to a friends place today to swim in their pool. My son is super excited. He's been counting down the days all week. LOL. Anyway, we've got a great colour challenge over at Inkspirational starting today. Anything goes with Kraft.
I love working with kraft paper. It can change the whole look of your card. I decided to try colouring with my Spectrum Noir markers. I love how it turned out. Take a look...
I stamped my flowers and leaves (STAMPlorations, Dee's Artsy Impressions, Blooming Buds set) in black on my kraft cardstock. Then I coloured them in with my SN markers (DR5, DR7, DG2, DG4). Then I masked off my flowers and stamped portion of a script stamp (Stampabilities. I think this is a discontinued stamp but any script stamp will do) in tea dye Distress ink, stamping off first to create a subtle look. I sponged some more tea dye ink around my flowers and stamped some of the flowers lightly around the edges. I sprayed some heirloom gold Perfect Pearls mist and then removed the mask. I stamped the sentiment (STAMPlorations, Trendy Feathers set) in walnut stain Distress ink. Then I attached my kraft panel to my white card base.
I hope you'll join in on the fun and make a krafty card! Come take a look at the other Ink girls projects too. They are all just wonderful. We have a fantastic Guest Designer too. Bobby from Bits & Pieces. Go check out her awesome card!
Hope you have a lovely day and thanks for stoping by!

Wow, Kim! Stunning card! I love all the details and you rocked the coloring. What a beauty.
ReplyDeleteThis is gorgeous, Kim! Love the rich colouring and the script background - very elegant!
ReplyDeleteI love the richness of the colours here, and the layering of the stamping - beautiful.
ReplyDeleteHow clever of you to have a friend with a swimming pool! I need a friend with a yacht ( or a pub!). Have fun in the pool!
Wow! What a stunning card! Your use of color and ink is always beautiful. Seriously, you have a skill Kim! I have been trying to work on a one layer card and I cannot get ink to do anything useful for me. I am more of a paper worker. =)
