Hello everyone, today I am sharing a summer wedding card that was inspired by a bridal bouquet from my friend’s wedding. I am using a technique that showcases how vibrant our VersaFine Clair inks are. 

Skill: Intermediate to Advanced
Time: 1 to 1 ½ hours

Directions:

For this card, you will need a 3D embossing folder, several ink colors and sponge daubers or another tool to apply the ink.

Step 1:

Run the 3D embossing folder of your choice through the machine. Tip if you lightly spray it with water this helps get a better impression.

Step 2:

Using a sponge dauber or other inking tool and add color to the debossed side of the panel. It’s okay if you get ink outside of the debossed area because the next step will cover it.

Step 3:
Using the VersaFine Clair Nocturne ink pad, rub it across the panel. The black will stay on top and will not go into the debossed areas and create a beautiful background. The versaFine Clair ink pads work well with this technique because they are so vibrant.

Step 4:
Stamp your sentiment using the Mini Misti and cut it out with the coordinating die.

Step 5:
Add your panel to a white card base and add the elements to finish he card.
