Less is More Challenge #258: one layer with a flourish

Less is More Challenge #258: one layer with a flourish


For my card I made a mask with a heart die and then sponged Distress ink spun sugar on it.

Then I stamped a swirly twig with leaves and heart several times, to fill the heart. It's from Imaginisce (heart vines)
I used red pigment ink to stamp it, then filled in the hearts with a red marker and used grey markers to give it a drop shadow, as if there's  dimension on a one layer card.
The Love you is from Technique Tuesday (say it -love you by Ali Edwards) and I used Versafine black onyx to stamp it.

I've added a link to  a video I made about washi tape, different shape, same technique, and a close up for the shadow...

  1. So pretty and clever to give it the shadow, initally I thought you had more than one layer - very effective

  4. So so clever Maaike, I did have to do a double take here as I thought you'd missed the one layer requirement but know you just blended your inks perfectly to give an impressive 3d look. Brilliant and thanks so much for playing along this week!
