The 3 Key Elements of A Clean And Simple Card | Card Video | Pink And Main

Hello Everybody!
Today I am going to share a new video about a card I made using the three key elements for Clean and Simple cards.
The 3 Key Elements of A Clean And Simple Card
These elements help to keep a card within the style requirements and make it pretty.

The 3 Key Elements are the following:
  • an interesting and uncluttered background
  • dimensional details
  • pretty and light embellishments.

To make my card I used the just released Fall Friends stamps and dies set as well as some other new products from Pink and Main.

To create an interesting setting for this cute hedgehog image I used a mask die cut from PVC Binding Cover with a help of the Stitched Top Note die by Pink and Main.

To make Fall sky I blended inks using the Clouds stencil. I applied Glimmer paste through the same stencil to add one sparkling cloud.

All images are stamped with alcohol friendly ink and coloured with Copic Sketch markers.

To colour the hedgehog I used the following markers: E42-55-44-02-49, T4-6. I coloured the leaves with YG21-25-67, Y18 and YR16.

Lately one Copic Sketch marker became my favourite for adding final shading - BV23.

The focal image is popped up with a super thick foam tape for extra dimension. I used individual leaves from the Fall Friends stamps and dies set to embellish my card.
