Multicolor Ink Techniques

I presented several examples of multicolor ink techniques on last night’s Facebook Live.  Today, I have pictures of those projects and supplemental details.

This big greeting from “Amazing Life” looks awesome inked with a multicolor Spectrum pad.  I used Shaded Spruce, Granny Apple Green, Bermuda Bay, Blueberry Bushel and Gorgeous Grape on my pad.  The stitched rectangles are 2 5/8″ x 4″ and 3″ x 4 3/8″.  The flowers were made with the Bitty Blooms Punch Pack.

I used the same pad to ink this smaller greeting too, using just the green sections of the pad.  The designer paper strip measures 2″ wide.

I used the blue and purple end of the same pad for this greeting from “Birthday Cheer”.  I also created a watercolor background in the same colors along the right side of the card.  I created that section with my acrylic block.  I applied ink to the “I” block with my Stampin’ Write markers, misted the block with water, and then pressed the block to Whisper White cardstock.

Here is the next example of a background created by misting an inked acrylic block.  These colors are Pineapple Punch, Mango Melody, and Flirty Flamingo and the stamps are from “Birthday Cheer”.

These colors are Gorgeous Grape, Highland Heather, Flirty Flamingo and Lovely Lipstick, and the stamps are from “Amazing Life”.

This is my simplest example.  It is made on a note card with Soft Sea Foam and Pool Party with stamps from “Dandelion Wishes” and “Well Said”.

This background was also made with a misted acrylic block, but this time, I pressed the multicolor pad to the block instead of inking it with markers before misting.  I cut the background piece with the 2 5/8″ x 4″ rectangle stitched framelit after it was dry.  I also used the cupcake edgelit on a Whisper White stitched rectangle to layer over the background.
