Fun with Oxide Ink

Hello! I have been playing again with Oxide Ink Iced Spruce to create a couple of One Layer cards using Colored CS.   The top card is GKD Chocolate Brown CS stamped with Power Poppy image from Sassy Succulents and sentiment from PP Lavender set.  Love the way the oxide ink pops on the dark CS.  Filled in the succulent with pencils in two shades of green. Added a touch of shine to 2 of the words with Stardust pen.

This second card is Black CS stamped with Hero Arts Leafy Vine cling stamp...love the velvety look of the oxide ink.  Finished with a Power Poppy Sentiment from Sassy Succulents in the same ink.  

Challenges:

AAA  Cards: Game # 94 One Layer Card with Colored Card base

Less Is More: Challenges #336 &#337 One Layer Card with Colored Card base

Tuesday Throwdown: TT351 One Layer

Have a great day! I love reading your comments. Theresa

Playing with Oxide Ink

Hello! It is fun to get new products and items to play with!  I just received Hero Arts July kit---first one that I ever bought---and it included Summer Flower and Creative Vases stamp sets and  Oxide Ink Iced Spruce and more.   I just had to try the Oxide ink after seeing Jennifer McGuire's post.  She makes me want all the colors of this ink.  And I liked the result in making the backgrounds for these 2 cards.
For the cards shown here, I started with  panels of white CS and sponged them with the Iced Spruce ink.  For the top one, I sprayed water on Hero Arts Floating Flowers cling stamp and laid it on the panel a couple of minutes. On the bottom card I used a very old SU background stamp Antique Cracking.  After drying my background panels, I finished with some die cut flower images that I stamped and colored with Copics.

Top card-Used Hero Arts Sweet Pea Bouquet, Butterfly, Watering Can, and Sentiment stamps and Frame Cut Dies . The can was stamped on a metallic silver left from a recycled box shown below.

Bottom Card-Used Hero Arts Sweet Peas and Bow stamps, Hero Arts Dies, Cheery Lynn die cuts, Mirror CS, White CS base, Blue Satin Ribbon layered on Light Blue Organdy Ribbon with Silver Thread.

Challenges:
Really Reasonable Ribbon: Challenge #167 Anything Goes with Ribbon-Layered 2 ribbons.
Happy Little Stampers: Anything Goes With Dies
Double D Challenges: Pastels

What fun playing with Oxide ink!
Have a great day! I love reading your comments. Theresa
