WHITE INK ON BLACK CARD

White pigment ink on a black card can look spectacular, especially when combined with solid silhouette-style stamps. Lavinia stamps work perfectly.  I've used various ways to apply the ink to these cards. I'm confident this class will be much simpler than the previous one. 😏
My white pigment ink of choice is the Lawn Fawn ink pad in Yeti (always buy a re-inker!). The black pigment ink I used (after drying the white ink) is the Versafine Clair Nocturne ink. Another stand-out pigment ink. 

"Summon the bats"

"The moon made me do it"
(Sparkles added with silver Stickles.)


"Namaste"

"Good with a twist"


"Weird"
(The stamp is one of Andy Skinner's, but I 
masked out the umbrella she was holding
and gave her a fish instead.)

"Home"


"Haunt you later"
(The ghosts on the black background are ATC
size, but I turned this one into a card. The
background is from a marble rolling with
acrylic ink class I taught.)

 

WHITE HIGHLIGHT EMBOSSING

 An easy technique that combines a few elements that, if chosen carefully, will work well together. Patterned paper is the base; this is then dry embossed with an embossing folder, which is then coated carefully with white pigment ink to bring out the design of the embossing folder. Lastly, an image or die-cuts and words are added to complete the look. The main criterion is choosing your patterned paper and embossing folder so they will both work together, with neither overpowering the other. 

"I do lie"


"Moister"


"Note to self"

"Hustle & grind"

"Full bloom"

"Endless possibilities"
