There were so many techniques shared on Day 2 but I decided to try the Acrylic Paint Resist technique. Here is my card and I have to admit that I really like it.
Ink: Worn Lipstick, Dried Marigold, Picked Raspberry; Ripe Persimmon Distress inks
Stamp: Dot Flower Pattern (Hero Arts)
Other: Leaf Die & Sentiment Die (PTI); Strawberry Twine (The Twinery); White Acrylic Paint
I inked up the Hello Die with the brighter pink and peach colours to make it stand out a bit more.
I do love the effect of the white acrylic paint but I have to admit that it makes me nervous to put paint on my stamps. It did come off fairly easily as I did it immediately after stamping. However, this stamp is quite detailed so the paint does get into the crevices and I did have to use a kitchen sponge to scrub it out.
I realised after taking the photo that I had meant to add Glossy Accents all over the die cut sentiment. I may still do it but I think the acrylic paint gives enough texture for this card.
So now I have another die cut, the leaf, to use on a second card! That will make 6 cards in just 2 lessons! Love it!
Hoping you are having a glorious Sunday!

Brenda this is lovely; Fab way of using the negative of a die cut and it looks gorgeous with these colors. The sentiment almost pops off the card; a bright and happy hello:)
Looking forward to see more of your projects from this online class!
I love this card, Rosemary. The colors are so nice and I love the hello over the die cut leaves. Great job!
I love the background stamp you chose and the colors!
a gorgeous card. Beautifully done Brenda.
Brenda this is beautiful! I used acrylic paint on the very first stamp I bought before I even knew what stamping was all about...OY what a mess LOL!!!
