Sketch Saturday - Artistically Inked

The Artistically Inked Stamp Set is one of my favorites for creating a beautiful watercolor look. It’s on the retiring list and I’ll be sorry to see it go.

 
 

I made this card for the weekly Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge. Below is the sketch for the challenge.

 
 

Tips & Instructions

  • Pretty Peacock Card Base - 5 1/2 x 8 1/2, score at 4 1/4

  • Basic White Layer - 4 1/4 x 4 1/2

  • Basic White Sentiment Strip - 1 1/2 x 4 1/2

  • Lay the white strip on the white layer, centering it. Draw a light pencil line along the top and bottom of the strip.

  • Stamp the images so they will show above and below the pencil lines. It’s ok for them to be in between the pencil lines, you’ll cover that with the sentiment strip. I used Gorgeous Grape, Fresh Freesia, Pretty Peacock and Blackberry Bliss inks.

  • Stamp the sentiment on the strip in Blackberry Bliss ink. I used the Happy Little Things Stamp Set. Stamp the small flowers in Fresh Freesia.

  • Adhere the sentiment label on the layer and then add the layer to the card base.

  • Add some Rhinestones to the flowers on the sentiment strip.

 
 

On the inside layer (4 x 5 1/4), stamp the flowers across the bottom using the same colors you used on the card front.

 
 

Isn’t this beautiful! This stamp set does all the work for you.
