DIY Easy Ink Blending Background on Kraft with Matching Die! Color Combos with Crystal

DIY Easy Ink Blending Background on Kraft with Matching Die! Color Combos with Crystal

Hi there! Today I have a fun and summer vibe inspired Color Combos with a Matching die! For this card we are using the ever popular kraft and showing you how easy is to make it bright!

For this project I used the following products:

  1. Say it big die set from Unity
  2. White Cardstock
  3. Kraft Cardstock
  4. Foam Adhesive
  5. Ink Blending
  6. Distress Oxide in Worn Lipstick, Dried Marigold, and Picked Raspberry.
  7. White Watercolor

To start this project I trimmed the white cardstock 5.50 x 4.25, then trimmed the Kraft cardstock to 4.00 x 5.25 inches.

Then ran a piece of white cardstock over the Thank You, “Say It Big” though my die cutting machine then separated them.

With an extra sheet of cardstock, I started blending the three colors of distress oxide from the line of cardstock and blending out.

I moved the cardstock counterclockwise and repeated the ink blending.  With the blending brushed already out, I dabbed the color over the Thank YOU inner part of the Say It Big Die to create an hombre look.

Using a foam adhesive, I placed the inner Thank You in the white outline background. To finish the whole thing, I used the white watercolor and splattered the whole thing.

I have a full video on how to make this background without dies or stencils.

Let me know your thoughts!  Have a great day!
