Two colour blending stamping and inking

Sometimes with all this wet drizzly weather, thoughts turn to warm sunny days and today's card is done with two lovely warm tones, Crushed Curry and Cajun Craze.
I used a blending technique with the Best Birds by using the Aqua Painter to blend the stamped image to give tone.
The background was done using our Sponge Brayer and the masked area with So Saffron.

By using coordinating cardstock in Cajun craze and crushed curry it pulls everything together with a few pearls for interest.

Favourite tools Sponge Daubers

My favourite tools in my craft box have to be Sponge Daubers, a pack of five for £4.50 code 133773, order through my shop button above.

They fit on  your finger like a thimble and allow you to blend colour seamlessly onto our cardstock and are perfect for masking techniques, check out my video techniques for ideas and techniques.

Product list for this card -
