This is the latest "Make-It-Monday" from Papertrey (found here) and it looked like it might be a fun card to make. It uses paper, reinkers and a straw. I have a few Stampin' Up reinkers that I haven't used before so it's nice to use them for something!
I used white cardstock as my card base and squeezed out a few drops of Pretty in Pink ink and quickly blew them with a straw. The ink just goes wherever it wants to, so you don't have a whole lot of control doing this, but you have to work fast otherwise the ink gets absorbed into the cardstock.
After I was satisfied with how much pink was on the paper, I did the same with Lavender Lace and Rose Red inks until I was happy with the results. Let me tell you, I felt like I needed a bit of extra oxygen after doing the card! lol
I decided to use a Fillable Frame #10 die-cut for the sentiment, stamped a red outline and the sentiment in black. I placed it on foam tape for a bit of dimension and adhered it to a Pure Poppy cardstock card base.
This card was a lot of fun to make!
