The course demonstrated how to use your ink pads and achieve amazing ink blending results for your projects. For today's card I used two techniques to create a background and focal point.
First I used the Ombre Effect Technique to create a background using the Altenew Sweet Dreams Aqualicious Crisp Dye Ink.
Following on from this I stamped the Altenew Wild Geranium Stamp onto cardstock and heat emboss it using the Altenew Pure White Crisp Embossing Powder.
I then used the Emboss Resist Technique and ink blend the white embossed Wild Geranium flower using the Altenew Sweet Dreams Galactic Stream and Teal Cave Crisp Dye Inks. It just created a stunning result.
To finish I stamped the Altenew Wild Geranium Sentiment Stamp and heat emboss it using the Altenew Pure White Crisp Embossing Powder. I then die-cut the embossed sentiment using the Altenew Wild Geranium Sentiment Die.
I will share more of my projects from the AECP as I work my way through the courses so stay tuned for more cardmaking posts!
