Hey guys I'm up on the Blogger with a St. Patty's card doing a challenge for Simon Says Stamp Blog. This weeks Challenge is all about Spritz and Splatters! To join in on the fun or just to get some inspiration Clink on the link and head on over.
I started out with an A2 size white card stock trimmed down an 1/8th of an inch. I went into all of my spritzes and sprays and grabbed a bunch. I had mowed lawn, wild honey, rusty hinge, and even a color I made up! I spritzed a color and then heat set it and moved on to each of the other colors doing the same. After it was completely dried I added some white acrylic paint splatters along with some white acrylic paint mixed with a little mowed lawn and splattered that.
I printed out an image I purchased off of Etsy. I got 20 of the cutest St. Patty images that are perfect for doing quick cards! Here is a link to her shop if you want to head over and check them out. I printed this image out on a 3x3 watercolor paper and I loved the look. I die cut it with one of my stitched dies (I really don't even know what to call that shape).
I die cut the CHEERS! from an alpha die from Recollections. I used the same color card stock that I used for the sentiment to back the card and adhered it altogether. My final step was to add glossy accents to the top of the beer and to the letters in the sentiment. It really was a fun card to make. I love playing with inks. Do you use sprays and splatters on your cards?
I so appreciate you hanging out with me today and I hope I inspired you to make a card and put a smile on someones face today.
Make it a crafty day!
