Follow Your Dreams

As I was prepping for my Stampscapes class this weekend, I took a moment to play with my brayer again.

As before, I used Xerox Heavyweight Matte cover card stock from Staples, and Adirondack dye inks.

I began with Adirondack Lights Cool Peri direct to paper over the entire card. I smoothed it out with my brayer. Next was Adirondack Brights Raspberry on the top and the bottom, followed by Adirondack Brights Purple Twilight and Adirondack Earthtones Denim.

Then I stamped my images from Stampscapes with Archival Jet Black ink. I think this would make a great graduation card, especially for a guy.

As always, thanks for stopping by.

Sandy, this is stunning! Love the all purple/blue color scheme. Fantastic.

Not many guy cards could be this purple -- but this would work! neat colors you used -- they would also be awesome for some halloweens scenes.

Great card and the idea for a graduation card!!! It beats the traditional ideas for a grad card!!

Excellent guy card! I'm always on the look out for guy cards. I love the subtle shade changes in the colour. Great job.

OMG this is stunning! It helps that it is done in purples (my fav color). I was just looking at this set on the Stampscapes website.
