How to Make

  1. Stamp the image onto white card with black ink (I used Memento Tuxedo Black ink).
  2. Use Dusky Pink to add a base layer of colour all over the dog’s head and body (leave out the ears and the tummy)
  3. Go around the edge of the image using the Cinnamon pen – round the edge of the head, body, and paws, etc – anywhere that is in shade.
  4. Take the Dusky Pink shade and go over the join between the colours. The alcohol in the inks will blend the colours together.
  5. Add a base layer of Cinnamon pen to the ears.
  6. Go around the edge of the ears with the Shale pen.
  7. Go back to the Cinnamon pen and go over the join between the colours to blend them together.
  8. Use Blossom on the insides of the ears, Rose Pink for the flowers and on the ground where the dog is sitting, and Lime Green for the leaves.
  9. Add Glossy Accents to the dog’s tummy and to the flower centres. Sprinkle with glitter and leave to dry.
  10. Layer the dog onto card, and then onto a decorated base card as desired, to finish.
