jac-inks Challenge 13

Hi there again! I am back with the latest jac-inks challenge — Monotone! I really enjoyed this challenge and have made a couple of cards for it…

Stamps: Easter Blossoms, Sincere Salutations, En Français

Card: Whisper White, Riding Hood Red

Ink: Cherry Cobbler, Riding Hood Red, Ruby Red

Other: 3/8" Riding Hood Red Taffeta Ribbon

Stamps: Pocket Silhouettes

Card: Whisper White, Old Olive

Ink: Old Olive

I was really happy with the way the first card turned out — red does happen to be my favourite colour, and I just love that blossom stamp! I thought that the sentiment might get lost in the background, but it was dark enough to be noticed.

The second card is similar to some I've done before. I penciled in the border and stamped the sentiment along it, then using an Old Olive marker I ruled over the penciled line from one side of the sentiment to the other.
