Brush Up Your Thanks: Ink-Blended Thank You Card

Today’s project is a Thank You Card featuring ink blending using our Blending Brushes!

This is a handmade card made with the Stampin' Up! blending brushes and the sentiment says thank you for your kindness.

My upline, Brian King, designed this fun sketch for our team to follow:

So, this card was my artistic interpretation of his sketch!

This is a handmade card made with the Stampin' Up! blending brushes and the sentiment says thank you for your kindness.

I couldn’t wait to give my Blending Brushes a test-drive, so I cut an additional 3-5/8″ x 4-7/8″ layer of Whisper White and die-cut an oval from the center using the Layering Ovals Dies to use as a “stencil”. I grabbed ink pads that coordinate with the Dandy Garden Suite (Calypso Coral, Bumblebee, Mossy Meadow, Misty Moonlight) and had fun blending ink in rainbow order as the focal point of my card.

Then, I heat embossed the “thank you” sentiment in white on to a 3/4″ strip of Basic Black to layer over the ink blended oval, stamped a dragonfly in black towards the top of the oval and added a rhinestone for the finishing touch!

Thank you so much for stopping by today! I hope you have a wonderful & blessed day!
