Perfect Love faux layers

 Perfect Love

stamps used for card #1:  Blue Knight Perfect Love stamp set

For this card I did what I call Faux Layer technique with springtime colors.  Simple but effective.  See more of my Faux Layers here, here, here, and here but if you type Faux Layers in the search box on my side bar you will find more.  I started doing this technique back in 2012 so there are a lot to see.

card #1 basic instructions:

1.  mask off section on card with post it notes or any masking paper.

2.  blend colors between the masked off post it notes.  for the above card I did the colors in three sections.  when done blending colors the first time, go over it again to smooth out the colors.

3.  remove the post it note masks.  stamp image with black ink on the card leaving some of the image over the blended colors.

4.  stamp and emboss saying with white embossing powder onto black card and layer onto stamped layer.

5.  layer all layers onto base card that has edges colored with same ink used in the faux layer.

card #2

card #2 basic instructions:

1. mask off stripes with post it notes.

2.  blend on color.  first stripe is lime green, second coral and so on till you have as many stripes as you like.

tip:  just a matter of moving the post it notes after each color is blended.

3.  remove post it notes and stamp images with black ink over the stripes.

4.  add ribbon and adhere layers to lime green card base.
