I had to try a favorite technique again with the Mehndi Wishes stamp set - paper bleaching with clorox. I also added ink to my cuttlebug Paisley folder to create the DP that I thought coordinated beautifully with the stamp. I did 2 different designs - mostly because I inked on each side of the folder to see how different the effects would be. I prefer design #1 because after I ran the folder through the cuttlebug, I didn't like the recessed parts being inked, so I flipped the paper over and then lightly added ink (direct to paper) to the raised side. Following are the items I used to make these cards:
Mehndi Wishes stamp set by Rupha Svede from StampTV
GKD Pure Luxury cardstock: 120# heavy weight in ivory, 80# layering weight in ivory, Black Onyx, and Lipstick Red
Inks: Memento Tuxedo Black and Tim Holtz Distressed ink in Fired Brick
Cuttlebug Paisley embossing folder
Tonic corner punch, and Recollections brads and ebony detail embossing powder
I caught the crafting bug and now it's my obsession - I just love learning about all the different fabulous techniques available and seeing how creative and unique everyone's designs are. Thanks for stopping by!
