Another direct to paper card

I used a little masking, a little stamping and then swiping the ink directly to the paper.  I used glossy accents to simulate the rain drops and I covered the umbrella with and handle with glossy accents...kind of looks like they are wet!
It seems my friends need cards for friends that are having health issues and a lot more "C" issues too...hate that!

Dye Ink Direct to Paper!

These are both the same technique which is swiping the dye ink directly onto paper.  This first one has the HUGS cut out and layered it over the inked background.  I die cut the hearts out of the same paper...added some heart & small plain sequins.  This is PTI Big Hugs die and stamp set.

The "Hello" is a WPlus9 die and the stars are a PTI border die...the little stars attached to the face of the card are from the inside of the star border.
 
Fun and bright cards to send to friends!  Have a great weekend friends!

Online Clean & simple ~Day 5 ~ Direct to paper inking

Have you ever NOT had the right color of paper that you wanted to use, but you had the ink? 
I had a pretty SSS ink called Audrey Blue so I just wiped it across my white paper to give me the color I wanted.  I used MFT "washi" stamp set and PTI's Bigger Blooms for the sentiment and Embellished Elegance for the flower and leaf sprig.
