Card of the Day - Blended Resist Birthday

 Hello and welcome back! I've had a busy couple of weeks back at my day job, but there are several birthdays coming up that I needed to get some cards out for.

I love using the Blending Brushes and my stash of resist paper gave me another opportunity to try them out! I chose three different patterns and used a different color of ink on each one. I just matted them on Basic Gray, added a flagged sentiment piece and a twine bow, and done - easy peasy!

The trick to using this resist paper is that once you've sponged or brushed the ink onto it, you need to wipe it with a paper towel to get the ink off the resist part. Otherwise, it just looks muddy rather than the shiny effect you see above.

This design was inspired by the challenges at CAS Colours & Sketches and Freshly Made Sketches.

Thanks for stopping by, and have a great day!
