Shopping Therapy

If you are looking for some really fun new inks to play with, look no further than the new Donna Salavar Mix'd Media Inks and the new Stephanie Barnard Inks by Clearsnap. The Mix'd Media Inks come in 8 beautiful colors and the Stephanie Barnard inks come in 10 beautiful colors.

I stamped the image with Mix'd Media Black Ink and heat set with Black Embossing Powder which provided a really nice raised and shiny effect. The longer drying time on the Mix'd Media Inks allows you ample opportunities to decide how to proceed once you have stamped the image. I then die cut the image with a Circle Nestabilities and used Stephanie Barnard's Guava ink and a dauber to add ink around the image. These inks dry faster and allowed me to add just the right amount of color around my image.

Loving these new inks. You have to check them out!





I added a little Smooch to the flower in her hair and then assembled my card.
