Cinnamon Cider for today's Monochromatic Monday Card as it is retiring!
A simple way to create a fun background is to use Sponge Daubers to make circle prints.
So that my Basic White diecut from Encircled in Beauty Dies stand out more, I placed a Cinnamon Cider square under it. Hello sentiment is from Forever Fern stamp set - all that white space around the word just gave it so much attention. I couldn't resist putting a Brushed Brass Butterfly (say that quickly, how many times can you say it?!!!) on it as an accent.
To give the background some interest, I used a technique Stampin' Up! Concept Artist Melody Hyde showed us recently. I couldn't find my decorative masks, so I used the floral die from Artistic Die set as a mask. Place it on the circle dots background card stock, then spritz some water on it. Once dried, as you can see, the Cinnamon Cider circles are marbled.
This is such a fun card to do and easily replicable in any colour of your choice. What colour would you make this card in?
As always, if you have any questions, I am happy to help you.
Why Monochromatic Monday?
Did you know Stampin' Up! offers at least 50 colours for all your
creative work? All with coordinating card stock, ink pads and markers,
and some/most with Stampin' Blends, ribbons and embellishments. Take a
look at the range of colours!
In 2022, my personal challenge is to feature one colour each week on Monochromatic Monday.
I hope you will join me too, and use the #monochromaticmondaycard hashtag too.
Until next post, have fun stamping!
