Explore Dream Discover - Prickley Pear Stamps & Dies

Hello and welcome to my blog; happy Wednesday! Today I am sharing a fun clean & simple card design using products from Prickley Pear! If you struggle with ink blending then today's post will be just what you are wanting to know about.

My card today features the hot air balloon stamp from the Steampunk Gears 3 Stamp Set and the Hot Air Balloon Die. I heat embossed the hot air balloon with clear embossing powder and then used three different shades of blue inks to ink blend over over the embossing. But the secret to the smooth ink blending you will see in the photos below is the Dye Ink Blending Solution. OMG what a game changer for a smooth ink blend. I am super excited about this product and I think you will be too. I finished off the card with a few of the Boyfriend Blue Rhinestone Mix from Pajama Crafter Stamps.
