I promised you yesterday for some more Innovative Stamp Creations sneak peeks, and I am delivering!! Today's card uses the new Hibiscus sheet, which will be available on June 8th!!! Isn't this flower sooo pretty!
The sketch for this card is from MMSC#4...such a fun sketch! I really loved the frame portion of this sketch, so I broke out some Tim Holtz grungeboard, and covered it with scattered straw distress paint, and distressed it even more with some scattered straw and peeled paint distress inks. The image was stamped in Palette Black in, colored with copics and distress again with scattered straw and peeled paint distress ink.
The demask background was created with the Heidi Swapp demask mini mask. To get the opposite portion of the masked inked with the yellow color, I placed the mask on some glossy white paper in different areas and sponged some ranger watermark ink around the mask. Once it was completely dry (and yes...it too a long time to dry...I even hit it a few times with my heat gun...but did not use it too much because I did not want to scorch the glossy paper) I sponged scatter straw and peeled paint distress ink all over the paper. The dried watermark ink created a resist to the ink! Very fun!! A wonderful resist technique, only without using clear embossing powder!
To finish off the card, I added the sentiment with my oval SU punches, some so saffron ribbon, and circle metal family and friends sayings.
Come on back tomorrow for even more sneak peeks!! Thanks so much for visiting!
