HELLO & welcome to another Global Design Project challenge. This week we have an awesome sketch for you to follow. I just love sketch challenges because sometimes coming up with the layout of a card is the hardest part.
My card uses this sketch pretty literally. Look at these darling little holly berry and leaves! I liked them so much I created 6 to repeat in the grid. The paper holly leaves are cut from the Christmas Quilt Thinlets, and the red holly berry is created by me! Ha, kidding but turning Perfect Accents into shiny red berries is super easy to do with Stampin' Blends. I started with a white Perfect Accent left on the sheet. Do not remove from the sheet, it's so much easier to color first and then remove. Simply color the accent with the dark Cherry Cobbler Blend marker. Alcohol ink dries quickly and creates NO transfer mess.
Disclaimer: Using you Blends to color anything beyond paper may shorten the life of the marker. Be sure to take care, there is no need to push hard on the tip. Color the Perfect Accents lightly. Repeat coats as needed for the desired saturation.
