Birthday Card Made With Penny Black Dainty Whispers
Top of the morning to you, special friends! This is another card for the Dirty Dozen Monthly Theme, “Perfect Blend”. The card is a birthday card featuring the Penny Black Dainty Whispers stamp and blending of Oxide inks.
James 1:2-4
Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.
I began making the card by blending multiple Ranger Oxide Inks onto a piece of white cardstock using Tim Holtz Distress Blending Brushes. I repeated this on a second piece of white cardstock. Once happy with the results, I covered the Penny Black Dainty Whispers stamp, which is a dandelion, with Versafine Onyx Black Ink and stamped it twice onto the first piece of cardstock. I filled in the dandelion seed heads with black ink using Micron black pens.
Next, I added additional oxide inks using stencils. I stamped on some script (at the top) and designs (on bottom and sides) onto the panel. Using Versafine Onyx Black Ink, I covered and stamped butterflies from the Stampin’ Up! Papillon Potpourri stamp set. I also stamped the butterflies onto the second piece of colored cardstock and fussy cut them. Before adding the fussy cut butterflies to the panel over the stamped butterflies, I spritzed black ink and white acrylic ink onto the panel.
Then I blended the Tim Holtz Distress Glaze over the panel, which sealed the oxide inks. To finish the card, I added the fussy cut butterflies, sequins, and sentiment to the panel. I matted the panel onto a piece of black cardstock and added that to a white card base. You can see better the dimension of the butterflies in the below photo.
I hope you enjoyed the card and find it inspiring. If you care to leave a comment, I thank you immensely! Have a wonderful day!
