Somedays you just need to get inky.
I had one of those days lately. Everything I was inspired to make, left me covered in blotches of color...but looked FABULOUS!
This card was one of those things.
I used the emboss resist technique on the background of this card. I heat embossed my stripes with clear powder, and then started sponging my color on. I start with the lightest colors and work them together in the center of the card front. Then I blended outward and into my darker colors. Once blended, I used a soft cloth to buff any color remaining on my clear embossing off. I chose to mount my card front onto a Smoky Slate card base, so the white stripes, and fun colors, could stand out.
I added a couple of banners in the darker colors to the card front, and topped them with a black banner with my sentiment heat embossed in white.
Thanks for stopping by!
