Create a Rainbow Background with Memento Markers and Shimmer Stix

Posted on by

by Lindsay Adreon

I LOVE anything and everything rainbow in cardmaking, and if it sparkles, that’s even better! Making a rainbow watercolor background is pretty simple, but adding a good amount of sparkle without making mud can be more tricky. The Shimmer Stix are the PERFECT applicator to make a fun background that keeps its bright and vibrant colors without sacrificing any of the sparkle! I was so excited that the Shimmer Stix worked for this technique and can’t wait to try them with an ombre background, next!! I made two cards today, a birthday and hello card, plus check out the inside, too!!

Learn to Make a Set of Matching Thank You Cards

Coral is Imagine’s Color of the month for February 2019. I couldn’t resist using this gorgeous Radiant Neon ink in Neon Coral!! It is really stunning. I wanted a bold contrasting color to pair with it so I chose the VersaFine Clair in Fantasia. They are a match made in heaven! I absolutely love the way the colors play off of each other. They are both strong, bold colors on their own and yet they work fabulously together!

I made both of these Thank You cards at the same time and they were completed quickly. Sometimes it’s nice to have a simple, yet beautiful thank you card ready to give at a moments notice.

See How VersaFine Ink Can Be Used with Copic Markers and Stenciling

Posted on by

by Melissa Andrew

Today, I share how to use VersaFine Clair in multiple ways! This fabulous pigment ink allows for crisp clean stamping, stenciling, and layering. It works wonderfully for embossing sentiments “I am So Sorry” on vellum for sympathy cards and can be used under mediums such as Creative Medium. I stamped a teddy bear image with Memento ink and used Copic Markers for coloring, however, VersaFine can layer on top of the Copic coloring. See how I use VersaFine carefully with Alcohol Markers.
