Create Galaxy Background With Dye Inks

Hello, BRI friends!
It's Dana here with another Wednesday inspiration. I can't believe that it's already April and it means I have only 3 more times to share my cards as a design team memeber on this blog. Time flies too fast! For my first card of April, I tried to make galaxy background with dye inks. Let's get started!

To begin, I pulled out my Lawn Fawn dye inks and cold pressed watercolor paper. I ink blended the background from light to dark colors with mini blending tool. I used LF Merman, Plastic Flamingo, Manatee, Narwhal dye inks and Black Soot Distress ink. I then splattered white drawing ink with water using paint brush.

I stamped images from Neat and Tangled Ride With Me Stamp Set onto white card stock with Altenew Permanent Black and colored them with Copic markers. I die cut them using Ride With Me Dies and added highlights with Signo White.

Before foam mounting the images, I heat embossed sentiment from Neat and Tangled Dreams Stamp with Ranger Black Sparkle Embossing Powder. It sparkles very beautifully in different shades of colors, but does not shown well in the picture.

To finish, I adhered embellishments from Studio Katia Silver Foil Crystals and Onyx Crystals here and there using Multi Medium Matte.

Thank you so much for reading this post. Happy crafting!

Love,

Dana
