Hello Card Makers!
Today’s card is a clean and simple one using the Maker Forte inks and stamp-You’re Berry Sweet. The process is a simple ink watercolor. Follow along for the easy instructions on making this card.
First decide on the size of the card to be made. This is a standard A2, 5.5×4.25 inches. I chose purple, blue and white as my colors since the stamp is one of blueberries. Each layer is 1/4 inch smaller then the one before it.
The next step is to watercolor the blue and purple onto the white layer to create a background for the focal image. This is done by stamping the Maker Forte inks onto a surface and add water. Using the background stamp to pick up the watered down ink, then stamp it onto the white layer. When the watered ink is dry, stamp the blueberry stem in black centered over the watercolored background.
The next step for me was to emboss the sentiment onto vellum in blue.
The final step is to assemble the layers. The sentiment was attached using foam tape to give depth to the card. I added a few matching enamel dots to complete the card. This card would work with many different sentiments for many different occasions. please feel free to copy or change the design to make it your own. Enjoy
