TJ Inkspirations: April 2019 Artwork
Wednesday, April 3, 2019
Floral Border
I love it when you can take plain black cardstock and make it look elegant. That's just what happened on this card. With the stunning Floral Border Stamp (SD914) and a sentiment from the Anniversary Set (SS100), and some Versamark with a twist, the card turned out very elegant (in my very humble opinion, lol).
To create this card, I started with a piece of black cardstock cut to 4" x 5.50". The image was stamped on the MISTI using Versamark, then dusted with Perfect Pearls (Pearl). I wanted a little more shimmer, so I dusted the entire piece of cardstock with Perfect Pearls then took a soft brush and removed the excess powder, which left it with a beautiful sheen across the whole piece. To add even a little more glam and glimmer, I added more shimmer to the flowers and leaves with a Nuvo Aqua Shimmer Glitter Gloss Pen. Just look at this closeup! So pretty.
I stamped the sentiment with Versamark and shined it up with some silver embossing powder. To finish off the card, I attached the black panel to a gray card base and added some pearls for a little extra elegance.
The stamp sets I used were just two of the 15 new releases for April! All these wonderful stamps are on sale for 15% off only until the 8th of this month, so you better hurry! No need for a code as the discount will be automatically applied. And don't forget, spend $30 before taxes and automatically receive the free I Like To Party stamp which you can see a sample of HERE. And to top it all off, you can save a cool 10% off all the extras you may want by using my code below:
Now how is that for some bargain shopping!
Thanks for visiting today! Hope you found some inspiration!
Til next time,
Keepin' it inky!

DALIAHS FOR SPRING
Hello!!!
Did you catch the new release yesterday? Holy smokes, there were some fabulous works of art on display. If you missed it, you can still catch all the goodness here and link to all the blogs.
I'm so in love with this new stamp "Dahlias" from the April 2019 release. I colored it with my Chameleon ColorTone Pencils after stamping it in a soft gray colored dye ink. The sentiment is a masked portion of a stamp from the "How Blessed I Am Set of 8" .
All the stamps from the new April 2019 release can be purchased for 15% off until April 8. Grab them at that price while you can. Also, for the month of April, get a free stamp with a $30.00 order. For more discount options, all other stamps and some supplies can be purchased with my personal discount code of TJ10Cheri.

Spring Bunny
Good Morning!
Today I'm featuring the Spring Bunny Stamp
Just a little hint: When working with this stamp, I would recommend you
stamp her in a light color. I stamped the image in grey and I actually stamped off first.
I coloured the image with Prism Pencils to keep it soft.
I just wanted the image to stand out on it's own, so I mounted it on some pretty Ribbon.
Because of the abundance of linework in the bunny, it doesn't require a lot of colouring!!!!
Hope you have an amazing day!

It may or may not be early for Mother's Day card, so I'm sharing a fun technique with the Flower Trio stamp that just happens to use a pretty font sentiment that's for Mothers Day. It's a detailed but dense image, so I used it to my advantage to color with ink!
