I had so much fun making this card. It was easy making the sunset with Ranger’s Distressed inks.
These are the products I used to make the sunset:
Tim Holtz™ Adirondack® Alcohol Ink Applicator
Inkssentials™ Ink Blending Tool & Foam
Tim Holtz™ Distress Ink Old Paper, Broken China, Faded Jeans, Mustard Seed, and Spiced Marmalade
White Cardstock
I always start by protecting my work surface with a non-stick craft sheet.
1. Start from the bottom of the page with Distressed Ink Old Paper. Apply the ink to the foam and rub onto the bottom on the page simulating sand, on a card that is 3.5″ high, apply the Old Paper ink along the bottom 1″ of the card.
2. Skip to the top of the page and using the foam apply Distressed Ink mustard seed to the top in a rubbing dabbing motion, on a card that is 3.5″ high, apply about 1″ of the mustard seed.
3. Using the foam, apply Distressed Ink spiced marmalade to the very top of the card, approximately the top 1/2″ of the page.
4. Mixing between the faded jeans and broken china, apply the blue ink to the middle of the page in a rubbing motion. The blue inks will blend with the brown and yellow.
5. Now stamp your image over the sunset. All the colors will blend nicely together making the sunset.
6. For that extra special effect I used Art Glitter’s ultrafine glitter in green on the hula skirt. I applied the pink art glitter to the wrists with a glue pen.
Let me know if you have any questions.
