~Typewritten Sentiments/Note Cards~
October 26th, 2020 by Holly McMillen
We had our first snow of the season start on Sunday early morning. We’re all praying that the moisture will put a major dent in the 370K acres burning in the Rockies (just west of us). We’ve had our fair share of horrible quality air for the last 2+ months. On several days, the smoke cloud has been so bad that it completely blots out the sun. It’s a really eerie feeling when it’s pitch black out at noon.
We’re debuting several new sets at The Stamp Simply Ribbon Store. These are PERFECT typewritten sentiments that cover a vast variety of occasions.

I made these with a faux abstract look. Definitely flat enough for mailing.

Background:
Any dye ink (water soliable)
Acetate
Water
Paintbrush (optional)
************
- Run ink pad over acetate a few times
- Add a few drops of water
- Mix with paintbrush or leave as is.
- Two options for creating background.. Spread on your cardstock with paintbrush
- or apply cardstock directly into the ink.
- You can do multiple colors for your panel.
- I recommend watercolor paper, but I used a heavyweight cardstock. My edges slightly curled, but I like the look.

I love the pretty backgrounds you created for this set of cards, Holly! I need to try that acetate technique, as it sounds like fun!! Love the white sentiments on black paper as well! Beautiful cards!
