My focal image is from Reverse Confetti's Mahalo stamp set. Instead of coloring the image, I used the set's solid image stamps and pigment inks to fill in the outline. Since I forgot to order the matching dies when I ordered this set (need to remember to do that next time I place an order . . .) I cut the image out by hand, then used foam tape to adhere it to an angled orange panel. The set's "cheers to you" sentiment was stamped on an angle in pink pigment ink, then heat embossed in pink for a nice pop against the orange panel. I used more foam tape to adhere the angled panel to the top of a yellow card base with a fun and summery madras plaid panel centered on it.
Materials Used:
Mahalo stamp set (Reverse Confetti); Memento Tuxedo Black, Memento Luxe Rose Bud, Dandelion, and Rich Cocoa inks (Tsukineko/IMAGINE Crafts); Lemon Drop and Orange Fizz cardstock (My Favorite Things); Perfectly Plaid 6x6 paper pad (Lawn Fawn); Zing Grapefruit embossing powder (American Crafts); foam tape
These colors are perfect for your tropical drink! I love that plaid background! Thanks for playing along with us at Freshly Made Sketches!
