DIWALI LANTERN


•Take a piece of Craftyscrappers: Premium White Cardstock and cut it to the desired size.
•Take the Distress inks and create a background by blending them with the blending tool.
•As I wanted to use "Diwali themed colours," I started off with Spiced Mermalde Distress Ink at the bottom and then layered Wilted Violet, Picked Rashberry and Candid Apple..covering each portion at a time making sure to overlap all the colours until I was happy with it.

•Spintz some water on it and immediately lift it with a paper towel to get the bleached effect.

•Stamp the Lantern image from the "Diwali wishes" stamp set on a masking sheet.

•Stamp the Lantern image using Black Archival ink on the coloured background.

•Mask this stamped image and stamp the lantern image again...this way you will get overlapping and natural, free flowong look of the lanterns..
Repeat this step till you cover the entire portion.


•Stamp the sentiment at the bottom with Black Archival ink.
•Foam mount the image on a piece of one folded white cardstock and your Diwali card is ready.
