Tone on Tone Poinsettia Card

September 21, 2020 - by Houses Built of Cards

Tone on Tone Poinsettia Card

Good morning! I’m back today for the weekly Monday feature for me here on the Unity Stamp Company Blog! So happy to be featuring the AMAZING Unity Kit of the Month set on Mondays here on the blog. These kits are always AMAZING, and they hold a special place in my heart since they were the first thing I purchased from Unity, and what got me hooked on Unity to begin with. Who DOESN’T love getting a happy package of stamps in the mail every month, right? And these kits just keep getting better and better. You can read all the details and info to sign up HERE, and see this month’s kit as well.

Today I have a simple tone-on-tone card to share with you – a bit of ink blending and stamping working together for a neat effect!

Here is this week’s video sharing how this card came together:

I love mixing Distress Inks with Distress Oxides – while the colors are the same, they look a bit different because of the different formulations. So you get a great coordinated effect, but a bit of difference in depth!

Adding the sentiment in black, and then a few black splatters, helps pull all that black together and make it cohesive on the card.

Leaving the left edge a bit smaller for some white overlap helps set off the ink blending, and a few jewels in the center of the poinsettia is the perfect touch of sparkle to finish this card off!

Thanks so much for stopping by today! Hope to see you back here next week – have a wonderful week!
