Two Cards, Same Colors, Different Looks

 

I was playing around with some distress oxide inks today. 

I've created two cards using the same colors but they look very different.

 

I used distress watercolor cardstock for both cards. 

For my first card I used the smooth surface. 

I put some ink on my mat, spritzed with water and dipped each card panel into the ink. In order to layer the colors, I dried the cardstock after each color was applied.

 

The sentiment is from Taylored Expressions and so is the die I used for the coffee cups. 

I used a Stampin' Up stamp set and a Bo Bunny stamp set on the background.

I'll list the names of all products used below. 

 

For my second card I used the textured surface. 

The look created is way different than the first card. I like them both!

 

I did the same process to layer the inks for this card as I did for the first one. 

The sentiment used for this card is Funny Bones by Riley & Company.

I also use some sparkling clear droplets on this card.
