Hello!  This week I share with you a series of inky mixed media cards I've been making!

Each day I'll highlight one card and talk you through the supplies and techniques I've used.

Summary Process

Using Distress Inks and a Creative Expressions Smoothie, I blended the colours for this background, after first stamping the background with Jet Black Archival Ink.
 
The same white detailing as used in the other cards in this series really makes the details pop!
