To start my card, I first stamped the double line image from Wplus9 Country Charm to imitate the look of the dress.
For my next step, I then color my stamped line image using the Tim Holtz Adirondack Alcohol Ink in Wild Plum "for the fuchsia" color.
For the tip: I added some plain rubbing alcohol on my ink color to dilute it. It varies the colors depends on how much alcohol you use to dilute the inks....which is pretty cool :)
Here are the pieces for my card.
The main flowers I used is one of the image from the Wplus9 Hope Seed Co.
For the middle of my flower the Tim Holtz Adirondack Alcohol Ink in Stream. For the petals I used the Wild Plum, it varies with color by adding the regular Alcohol to dilute
the ink....I just played with it until I get the color I want. It dries really quick because the ink
is Alcohol base. Though you can also use your Copic markers with this type of ink since
Copic also is alcohol base.
I also added one of the image from the Wplus9 Lacey Layers, to add with my flowers. I then colored the whole stamped image with Copic E00.
As for the distressed panel, I used the Tim Holtz Distress ink in Dusty Concord. I only distress
half of the panel.
For the sentiment for my card I used one of the sentiments from
the Wplus9 Very Vintage Florals.
