Today my creative friends and I are participating in a Monochromatic Instagram Hop. I thought I would share my card here in hopes that you will pop over to Instagram and see all the cards in our hop!
Our challenge was to make a monochromatic card using the color Wild Wheat!
I chose the Collage Technique and the Notes of Nature Bundle for my card today.
Here is my card:
Here is a quick peek at the bundle:
And here is the inside of my card:
How You Can Make It:
Supplies:
Notes of Nature Bundle
Wild Wheat card stock
Very Vanilla card stock
Nature's Sweetness DSP
Something Fancy Dies
23-25 In-Color Dots
Wild Wheat ink pad
Wild Wheat Textured Ribbon
Measurements:
Card Base: Wild Wheat: 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 score 4 1/4
Card Liner: Very Vanilla: 4 x 5 1/4
Front DSP: Nature's Sweetness: 4 x 5 1/4
Focal Image: Very Vanilla: 3 1/4 x 4 1/2
Hexagon: Wild Wheat: 2x2
Greeting Tag: Very Vanilla: 2x2
Instructions:
1. Add the leftover DSP strip to the bottom of the message panel and then attach it to the inside of the card.
2. Burnish the score line on the card base so it is nice and flat.
3. Add the DSP panel to the front of the card.
4. Load all the image stamps from the bundle onto acrylic blocks. Have a piece of scrap paper ready as some of the images you will stamp full strength, some will be stamped off once, and others will be stamped off twice. This will give your collage a multi-tone using just one ink color. Stamp your focal image as desired using Wild Wheat ink only.
5. Add a ribbon around the focal image. TIP: burn the ends of your ribbon so that it doesn't fray...use a ribbon sealer tool or a lighter.
6. Add dimensional to the focal image and add it to the card front.
7. Stamp greeting and trim down close to letters on all sides
8. Die-cut the hexagon.
9. Layer the greeting together and add it to the card front using Dimensionals.
10. Embellish with In-Color Dots.
