Hello everyone! Today I’m joining Pretty Pink Posh and celebrating their March 2017 release. I have already shared two projects and video tutorials on Pretty Pink Posh blog featuring some of their new sets (I have links to those blog posts below), be sure to check those out as well.
My today’s project is a simple almost one layer 4 Bar friendship card.
CARD DETAILS
I started working on this project by stamping a scene using Simon Says Stamp Intense Black ink onto Simon’s 120 LB paper. I used my mini MISTI and double stamped my images for the blackest black outline possible. I used images from the Friends Forever stamp set.
Vases, roses and a heart were all colored using Copic markers; ever since I picked up a few additional colors I am more and more confident in my coloring although there’s still a lot to learn.
I used color combos I describe in my Favorite Copic Marker combos post (I have all colors linked below). I also added a shadow using a W3 and W1 marker and that also create a ground or table top for my scene.
After trimming my panel I foam mounted it onto a 4 Bar note card made out of woodgrain cardstock. I wanted to keep this project very simple and the woodgrain pattern added just the right amount of texture this card needed. Lastly, I embellished my project using my all time favorite small and medium droplets.
