Clearly Besotted: Lift Me Up STAMPtember Day 11 (+VIDEO!)

I decided to change things up a bit today and created a trifold card with a little ink blending and copic coloring…and of course, glitter! 😉

To start I trimmed a piece of white cardstock to 5″ by 10.5″ by 10 marked it every 3.5″ along the longest side so that I knew where the folds would be.  Then I stamped the images from Lift Me Up onto the panel with copic-friendly intense black ink. I also stamped the images onto post-it notes and fussy cut the post-it notes to create masks for my stamped images.  I placed the masks over the images and added a little stenciling with the Simon Says Stamp Clouds for Days stencil and distress oxides!  I started with spun sugar distress oxides and then blended to shaded lilac, tumbled glass, and blueprint sketch! I spritzed it with iridescent spray, removed the masks, and let it dry.

Once the oxides were dry I colored my images with copic markers.  Next I scored the card panel at 3.5″ and 7″ and then used a bone folder to crease the folds. This created a 3.5″ by 5″ card that easily fits into a regular A2 envelope but can be unfolded to create this fun scene!

Then I added accents with spectrum noir clear sparkle and a black glaze pen. I also used a copic multiliner to connect the lines of the baskets to the balloons.  I stamped the sentiment with versafine and heat-embossed it with clear embossing powder.  Then, as you’ve seen in many of my recents cards, I couldn’t resist adding a little glitter. I covered the highest balloon with nuvo crystal glaze and then sprinkled it with prisma and chunky glitter. Then I added lines of crystal glaze around some of the clouds and sprinkled them with glitter. Once everything dried I added a few accents with a white gel pen to finish the card.

Thanks so much for visiting and have a fantastic day!
