Simple Elegance with Mixed Florals: Cone Flower Card
Coloring Tips for a Soft, Delicate Look
To maintain that soft and elegant feel, I chose the light marker from each duo in the Stampin’ Blends collection. This approach allows for a subtle wash of color without overpowering the delicate details of the stamped image. Here are a few tips to help you achieve a similar look:
- Start Light: Begin with the lightest shade and gradually build color. It’s easier to add more color than to take it away!
- Feathering Technique: Use small, feather-like strokes to blend the color seamlessly. This technique helps create a more natural, organic look.
- Leave Some White Space: Letting a bit of the white cardstock peek through adds to the soft, airy feel of the design.
Die-Cutting Tip: Easily Remove Intricate Dies
Working with intricate dies can be a bit tricky, but here’s a game-changing tip: Place a sheet of wax paper between the die and your cardstock before running it through your die-cutting machine. This simple trick makes it so much easier to remove the cardstock from the die without tearing any delicate details!
