Just a Card

Happy Friday!

It's my turn to play in the Beyond The Blue challenge. Each week (I play every other week) a group of us friends who follow Lydia aka Understand Blue use a technique that we have learned from her of another crafter on our projects and challenge you to lay along. 

This weeks challenge is Gel Press Layering and using white ink, you can find it HERE

To create my card I started with 80lb white cardstock to use in the gel press, Distress Oxides and Atelier inks.

I placed my Gel Press on the lid of the Original Misti and inked it up with Peacock Feathers and Salty Ocean Distress Oxides and went over it with the brayer, then closed the lid and pressed into the paper I had laid inside. 

Next I inked up the Gel Press again and this time laid a stencil over the paper, closed the door and pressed the ink into the stencil to give it a second layer. 

I cleaned the Gel Press really good and inked it up using the Shark Bite Atelier ink, placed the same stencil down and then closed the lid, this gave a third layer.

For the final layer I inked up the Spring Flowers background stamp by Simon Says Stamp with Trinity Teal Atelier ink. 

To finish the card I embossed the sentiment from the XL Greetings 2 with white embossing on a piece of black cardstock, cut it out with the coordinating die and popped it on the front of the card.
