Smile Sunshine
I originally made another card similar to this and used a wavy border die to cut out the center for the sentiment in addition to slightly darker shades of ink. However, I wanted there to be fewer layers so the card would be easier to view as a whole. I love the Petite Petals stamp set from Stampin' Up!. The sentiments are from A-Muse Studio Sampler Set One. I like to incorporate a lot of color when I'm utilizing negative space. Here, I've used Pear Pizazz, Pool Party, So Saffron, Regal Rose, and Smoky Slate inks with a masking technique to frame in the sentiment. By lightening up the ink a few shades I achieved the spring (instead of summer) palette I was looking for.
