Love working w/ opposite colors! But I'll admit, I cheated a tad on this. I made this a while back but totally forgot to upload it. But it does fit today's challenge as it uses the blue/orange opposites. I'll try to get another done, but it's been one of those weeks. My dad is in the hospital and I've been under the weather the last few days and haven't had the energy to get my stuff out to work on things.
For my card, I used a piece of sticky back canvas for the main image. It took me a few tries w/ a few different inks and images to find the right combination for this canvas. So on this one, I used pigment ink (though the colors seemed not as bright on canvas as they do on card stock) and just to brighten it up, I added a little Prismacolor pencil overlay.
I used the same pigment inks on the tabs down the side and the canvas image underneath the sentiment. The large canvas bg was stamped w/ the distress ink. I used an edge distressing tool as well as a pair of scissors to unravel the edges of the canvas image. The finished card measures 4.25 x 5.5.
Thanks so much for looking! My blog:The Write Stuff. Sorry! I had to delete a bunch of really old posts from my blog & this is one of them.
