Inkspirational Challenge - Black and One Other Colour


Our new challenge at Inkspirational is to use black and one other colour . For my DT card I used butterflies from Avery Elle and a sentiment (Happy Little Stampers) . I must admit it's hard to see the black in the photo!  I stamped the butterflies in blue and then added touches of black ink and stamped them over again. Then I used the blue ink as a watercolour on the wings. The base card is actually black! I think it looks more navy in the photo.

We have a fabulous Guest Designer, Cheryl , joining us, so please come over to Inkspirational to see what she's made, and see the work of the DT , before entering your own creation.

Wow, Marina! It looks so beautiful with the three butterflies. And using the blue ink as watercolour is a great tip - have to remember that one :)
