Blog Hop IMAGINE Crafts and MAGENTA!


Magenta_badge 
 Welcome to a week of fantastic collaboration between IMAGINE Crafts and Magenta Rubber Stamps! Both companies are excited to share with you their products, from the latest inks from IMAGINE Crafts to the newest Fall and Holiday stamp releases from Magenta.    


   
My third project in row for this bloghop! 

Look at this beautiful effect! 

I'll tell you how I did this, just follow the steps: 
1, Spray some WALNUT inks (two colors here) onto you cardstock, spray with some water to dilute it a bit (these inks are very pigmented), and let it run. 
2. While still wet, spray some SHIMMER spray over it and see what happens to the background:
LOVE it!
3. Stamp a script in the background to add some interest. 
4. Stamp the flower image from Magenta with StazOn on a seperate piece of cardstock and cut it out.
5. Color the flowers with the walnut inks used in step 1. Adhere it to the background. 

DONE!

A second project also this time: 
Remember from the previous bloghopdate, the 18 th., I promised to show you the background, with ink left on the background stamp, you can find it in this post.
It's all shimmery from the Brilliance ink, and it's also got a hint of the green pigment ink.  
The flower is also from Magenta, the Fleur-contour, which is one of my own designs.
