For this card, I created a stripe of colour and then stamped the greeting on top.
After creating a post-it note guide (see below), I added four colours of ink to the paper. Starting with the darkest colour, Gumball Green, I burnished ink onto the card stock leaving lots of white space. To burnish, make contact with the paper and rub. Do not tap as you do when sponging.
Next, I added Calypso Coral ink in the same way, again leaving white space. Repeat with the Pool Party ink. Finally, burnish on Daffodil Delight ink to finish leaving no white at all.
Once the ink stripe is dry, stamp the Hello, Hello greeting ($9.95, 132675) on top with Basic Gray ink.
I layered the stamped piece of Whisper White card stock onto a second piece of Whisper White card stock with dimensionals and then added a Calypso Coral card.
