This was a very easy card to make and I wanted to make sure I maintained
the graphic look of it. To me a graphic look = simplicity.
To begin I chose the background. A pretty paper would have been nice, but
I love the graphic look of this washi tape by Altenew - Tuxedo. It had the
right touch of a graphic look without overdoing it. I covered a panel of
card stock (4" x 5 1/4") with this - twice, since the first time was crooked! 😞
But that worked out ok. This was not transparent so I simply put another layer
on top. I also put a bit of liquid glue underneath the top and bottom edges so it
wouldn't lift up...if I'd been thinking I would just cut the tape long enough to
fold over. Next I printed off the design to my desired size.
Just this week I received my order of Karin Brushmarker Pro. I wanted to use
them! So instead of my usual Copic marker coloring I used the Karin Brushmarkers.
I keep the coloring very simple - no shading at all!
Colors used: Canary, Fire Red, Pale Orange, Almond and Warm Grey I. I used
a shimmer pen on all of the flower centers. Next I fussy cut the image leaving a
very narrow white border.
I took my washi tape panel and adhered to an A2 size top folding white
card base. I adhered the colored piece with foam tape. As a last bit of
embellishment I added tiny iridescent orange triangles.
An that completed my project!
This was really a super quick card to put together! Find this and
