Stampin' Up! products used to make a pretty card featuring an alcohol inked background and a tree canopy

Inked Canopy

I have been having fun playing with Blends Markers and Alcohol………such fun, add in the Inspiring Canopy Dies and I have one gorgeous inked canopy card.

Colours used in this project are:

 To recreate the Inked Canopy card, you will need:

Bermuda Bay card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Misty Moonlight card – 5½” by 3¾”
Basic White card – 5⅜” by 3⅝” x 2, one for the inside
Vellum – 5⅝” by 3⅞”
Basic White card – 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Basic White card – ¼” strip

I used the following dark Blends Markers – Bermuda Bay, Misty Moonlight, Just Jade and Balmy Blue to scribble blocks of colour onto the Vellum. I dipped an almost empty Clear Wink of Stella Brush to splatter and dab 90% alcohol onto the Vellum allowing the ink to spread and pool. The panel was then set aside to dry.

When the Vellum was dry I trimmed off ¼” from the side and the bottom to decorate the inside panel and the envelope. The Vellum was then added to one the Basic White panels using tiny dabs of Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.
