Trio of cards: Ink Blending and watercoloring

Hi there everyone! Today I am back to share a trio of cards I made for the current Ellen Hutson Mix It Up Challenge! I decided to pair some Avery Elle stamps with some a ton of different images from various Ellen Hutson stamp sets and came up three party themed cards! A trio of cards with ink blending and watercoloring. 🙂 All supplies used are linked at the end of this post.

Each card features the Stoked Stamp set by Avery Elle. This little dude reminds me of my little dude!!! And I love this set has coordinating dies…. I am also using the Hero Arts Ink Quiet Morning ink cubes pack and the images are watercolored with the Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers (exact colors linked below in the supply list). Let’s take a look at the first card – this cool drummer dude making some music.

I paired the images with the “awesome” from the Ellen Hutson Totally Awesome stamp set and the music notes are from the Light Parade stamp set.

I again paired the Stoked setamp set with the Light Parade and Totally Awesome stamp sets… How cute is this little boy’s tongue. Reminds me of total concentration.

I colored in all the lights with a white gel pen. Oh and if you notice, all the card panels are woodgrain cardstock!

And lastly, a party themed card….

I want a chocolate cupcake now.

It’s time for you to play along in the Mix It Up Challenge. You can use any product from the Essentials by Ellen and Avery Elle! One randomly selected participant will win a $50 shopping spree to the Ellen Hutson store!!
