Hey everyone! I have some super quick and easy cards to share today featuring a truly easy technique and some of the new embossing folders from the Let's Chill release.
This first card features the Floral Harmony folder. I started by running a piece of watercolor paper through the embossing folder. Then I lightly swiped across the embossed piece with two of the newest inkpads - Fawn and Morning.
For this technique I held my inkpads basically horizontal to the surface of the panel and swiped horizontally across the panel. I did this in both directions, but consistently swiped horizontally, across the panel versus vertically.
I added a bit of inking in the corners using Fawn and a blending brush, did a final swipe across to punch up the color, and then trimmed the panel down.
I added a mat and a sentiment strip which was lightly inked with Fawn and popped up over the panel.
I really loved the moody colors, but thought it would be fun to create a brighter card as well.
I added both a yellow and white mat, and again used a sentiment strip sentiment to finish things off.
Super quick and easy card. Thanks for stopping by!
