Colour INKspiration #169 Bay Window Card techniques with White Pigment Ink - Bokeh technique

Yesterday I posted about how to create a panel using the Bokeh Technique -you can read those instructions here.

Using all the blues. 

Today I am sharing a card I intended to share for Colour INKspiration #169, but I ran out of time to get it photographed and posted. 

I am following on in my series on techniques using White Pigment Ink.

At a recent event I demonstrated a few of them including:

    *Direct stamping with White onto coloured cardstock

    *Offset stamping

    *Bokeh technique

    *Painting with White Ink

    *Emboss Resist

It has taken me a while to share these samples, I'll post them over a few days. I hope you give some of these techniques a try.

So to find the instructions to create a Bay Window Card you will find the link on my page of Fancy Folds.  Click on the orange tab and you will find links to lots of different card types. You can also use the search function in the top right corner as well.

These measurements are a bit different because they are a mix of metric and imperial, but it's easy to assemble and looks great. You will find links to other examples also.

A Bay Window card is a great fold because it folds flat to go in the mail.

Once I had my Bokeh panel I cut it into the 3 pieces keeping them in order so that the pattern flows from left to right just as I created it, this is more harmonious but you could definitely mix it up as well.

I used the cute little arrow stamp and the "Hey" from a new set Happiest Day. 

And I may have got the colours wrong as I used Azure Afternoon instead of Blueberry Bushel, but I love the brightness.

I also again used the Changing Leaves 3D Hybrid folder, and I sponged some Azure Afternoon Ink over the leaf, and also over the white glimmer circle which sits behind it to give a frame for the leaf to mount to.

I hope you have a creative week and remember, 

"don't just post online,

 post something pretty!"
