Wendy Vecci Make Art Blendable Dye Ink Pads

For my first project with these deelish inks, I selected the trio of reds to blend and build a gorgeous background onto some Wendy Vecchi Perfect Cardstock (White).  This 110lb cardstock blends so beautifully well and the ink just rolled onto the page like butter.  YUM!  As you can see from my process photo below, I started out by using a blender brush to go around the top/right/bottom edge of the paper.  Top:  Carnation Red, Right Side:  Cactus Flower, Bottom:  Pink Peony. 

After finishing the background blending, I used the stencil in the "A Million Thanks" Stamp, Die, Stencil set to create a little pattern on the central portion of my background panel.  Next, I stamped the leaves onto the edges of the panel using my stamp positioner and some black ink.  After I was satisfied with the design, I splattered some black acrylic paint on the background panel with my super fine paint brush.  

Once my background was complete, I moved on to stamping and coloring the floral image and the butterfly image in the stamp set.  I used my stamp positioner to get the most perfect and crisp images.  I colored the images using Copic markers.  

Copics used on this project include:  

Reds:  R81, RV55, V05

Yellows: Y18, Y23, YR65

Greens: YG25, YG61

After completing the coloring, I diecut the images and then added a personal fussy cut edge to each design before attaching them to the panel.  I then attached some black satin ribbon and mounted this panel onto some lime green cardstock.  I mounted the completed panel onto .a coordinating fuchsia card base.      

**Thank you Ranger for providing these fabulous new Wendy Vecchi products to play with. I am excited to share additional projects very soon!
