Some people prefer cards that area simple and serene, others love colour and vibrancy. Sometimes it just depends on your mood. By changing the colour of your card base, you can get a much different look for the same card. Here I have inked up the Sale-A-Bration free stamp set, A Touch of Ink with Memento Black and then stamped the "fill in" images with Granny Apple Green, Melon Mambo, and Coastal Cabana for the hummingbird. This photopolymer stamp set is easy to use and creates gorgeous cards with a slight watercolour appearance. The fill-in images do not line up exactly and that adds to the overall whimsical and watercolour effect.
I always prefer colour, but I know not everyone does! Which one is your favorite? The card on the left is layered on a Melon Mambo card base, the one on the right Thick Whisper White (still using up some old stockpile vs. Basic White!). A thin layer of Basic Black cut at 3-7/8" x 5-1/8" really sets off the black outline images on the white panel which was cut at 3.75" x 5". The hummingbird was cut out by hand and popped up on some Stampin' Dimensionals.
Don't forget the inside of your card!!
