I started with this beautiful ink blend! I was staring at my newly created Oxide Swatches and was moved to use these three colors. I started with Shaded lilac, then to Chipped Sapphire and finished with Villainous Potion. This was a purple that I didn’t realize I needed until I had it in my hands! I used my favorite blending paper Simon Says Stamp Mega Thick 130 lb Card stock. Oxides blend so smooth on it, its such a dream! I also used my favorite blending brushes from Simon as well. I do use separate brushes for my dye inks and my oxides.
Once I had it blended, I grabbed my homemade spritz spray using Liquid Pixie Dust and a empty spritzer. I added a couple drops and some water into the spritzer. I laid the Simon Says Stamp – Snowflake Cluster Stencil onto the blended panel and carefully spritzed the paper until I had a nice sheen. Because the oxides react with water, I got this snowy, shimmery beauty. I set the panel to the side to dry and moved onto my die cutting.
I cut the Etched layered daisy out of Neenah Solar White 80 lb Card stock and I cut each layer out twice to beef up the die. I glued the layers together and then added a little Villainous Potion to the middle to help offset the white.
I used my Gina K Connect Glue to add some highlight spots to the leaves, and then added Distress Glitter – Rock Candy for even more shimmer!
Finished the card with a Concord and 9th mistletoe die in vellum. The die I used was an exclusive to our Holiday Workshop, but I did locate another product that would give a similar result with Simon Says Stamp – Be Kind Die.
I really love the purple wintery feel of this card and had so much fun creating it!
