Hey everyone this is Nicky with you today on the Alex Syberia Stamps blog, thank you for joining me. Today I’m sharing with you a CAS card design that starts with two masked and ink blended focal points within which you can set little scenes. If you’re ever a little stuck for an idea this is a good place to start. To create this card I have used:-
Merry Christmice (stars)
I took an A2 panel of white cardstock and I used masking tape to create 2 sections which I ink blended with Sea Glass ink by The Stamp Market. I made the ink blending a deeper shade at the bottom of each section and then faded it out as I worked the ink upwards. I then used the same ink and a little star image from Merry Christmice to add interest to the background. I removed the masks and adhered the panel to a card base.
Using Memento Ink in Tuxedo Black, I stamped the images from the always lovely Hog Happy Day stamp set. I coloured the images with the following Copic marker combinations:-
Piglets – RV42, R12, R00, R000
Teal – BG49, BG34, G00, G000
Blushes – RV23, R32, R21, R00
I die cut the images and adhered to the ink blended areas with dimensional foam tape.
I stamped the sentiment and die cut then applied with more foam tape. I highlighted areas on the piglets with a white gel pen and then I used Stickles Glitter to add sparkle to the tea set, fairy wings and one or two other areas.
I appreciate you reading the blog today and hope you find some happy time in your craft space soon.
