T
he marble technique was used to create the background on this beautiful Black & White card.
Project Recipe
Cut Whisper White Thick card base, 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", scored at 4 1/2" on the long side.
Cut Basic Black cardstock 4" x 5 1/4" and layer on card base. Before layering onto card base, cut out a black oval (#5 from smallest to largest) to layer under the sentiment.
Cut Whisper White cardstock 5" x 3 3/4" for marble technique.
To create the marble background, place 2-3 drops of Black Reinker into a clear wood stamp case or similar container.
Add 3 marbles, close the lid and shake to ink up the marbles.
Next, attach Whisper White cardstock (5" x 3 3/4") to the lid of the container with a small amount of repositional adhesive.
Close the lid, turn the container up side down and shake till desired marble affect is achieved.
When ink is completely dry, adhere over the Basic Black layer.
Rub Embossing Buddy or used dryer sheet over a scrap of Whisper White cardstock to remove any static. Stamp sentiment with Versamark ink and emboss with Black embossing powder. Flick off any excess embossing powder and if any specks remain, gently brush off with a fine brush before heat embossing.
Cut out sentiment using the #4 oval framelit and layer on top of #5 Basic Black Oval framelit with dimensionals. Then centre on marbled layer.
Add three black star sequins with a dot of Multipurpose adhesive.
Finish inside of card as desired. Enjoy!
