Rainbow Hugs Friendship Card | No Line Coloring Using Atelier Inks

Hello my Friends, Ilda here!

I hope you all are doing well and have had a wonderful week. I'm sure by now you all know how much I love rainbows, for me rainbows symbolize hope and happiness to come. So I thought it was fitting to add a rainbow in today's friendship card. I pray this Pandemic will end soon so we can hug our families and friends again.

CARD DETAILS 

To begin, I stamped out the cute image from the new FOX AND BUNNY HUGS stamp set using FADEOUT INK. I then lightly drew the rainbow around the fox and bunny image.

I then used both the Atelier Re-inkers and the inkpads to color the images in. I found it easiest to add a drop of ink from the re-inkers onto a paint palette and dilute it with another drop of water. Where I needed a touch of color I picked up ink directly from the ink pad. (See thumbnails below for all the colors used). Once the image was completely dry I added pencil detail for an added layer of shading.

To create the grass I masked off the area under the images and then blended out the area using the ATELIER GODDESS GREEN ink. I then spritzed the area and picked up the water with a paper towel to distress the area. To complete the grass, I added some flicked grass blades using a water brush. To the sky, I added clean water and then added a touch of blue ink from the ATELIER PEACOCK BLUE ink pad. 

I then finished the card by stamping out the Hugs from the FOX AND BUNNY HUGS and then the little butterflies from the FOREVER FRIENDS using JUICY INK and heat setting them using CHROME EMB PWD. 

I hope this Rainbow Hugs Friendship Card inspired you today and for those of you that need a hug right now during this time, I am sending you one too.

Thank you for stopping by and until next time... Happy Crafting 👋
