Hi Stampers!
Today we are going to use die cuts and their corresponding negatives (the cardstock from which the image is die cut) to create cards. This is a great way to use cardstock that you might usually toss. So . . . let’s take a look at these positively negative cards:
I used Stampin’ Blends to color the images on the cards. Normally when using Stampin’ Blends I use Memento Tuxedo Black ink as it works best with Stampin’ Blends (alcohol markers). There are several Stampin’ Inks that work equally as well when using blends to add color, Early Espresso is one of them. Stamping the image in Early Espresso gives a softer feel than stamping the image with the Memento Tuxedo Black.
