AIR #3 October - Kaleidacolor Challenge

I am back to share my third Tutorial as an Artist in Residence Tutorial for Imagine Crafts/ Tsukineko®  for September.  For this months Challenge we were given an IMAGINE Crafts®/Tsukineko® Kaleidacolor™ Dye Inkpad - mine was Autumn Leaves - with some IMAGINE Crafts® Fireworks!™ Craft Spray to match.  Here is what I came up with.

 Imagine Crafts/ Tsukineko Supplies:

• IMAGINE Crafts®/Tsukineko® Kaleidacolor™ Dye Ink in Autumn Leaves
• IMAGINE Crafts® Fireworks!™ Craft Spray in Bamboo Leaves

Preferred Promotional Partners:

• GC-001 Spellbinders Grand Calibur® Machine
• S5-019 Labels Eight Spellbinders® Nestabilities®
• S5-148 Decorative Labels Eight Spellbinders® Nestabilities®
• ES-016 Cabbage Roses Spellbinder® M-Bossabilities™ folder

Other: Brayer, Rose ribbon, Cosmo Cricket™ - Chipboard Alphabet, Want2Scrap© - Swirls Finesse; Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L™ - E-Z Adhesive Runner

Emboss white card using the Cabbage Roses Spellbinder® M-Bossabilities™ folder and the  Grand Calibur® Machine.   Apply IMAGINE Crafts®/Tsukineko® Kaleidacolor™ Dye Ink in Autumn Leaves and a brayer.

NOTE:  If you line up the edge of your brayer with the edge of the ink pad, you will get the same colours each time you roll.

Cut two (2)  Decorative Labels Eight Spellbinders® Nestabilities®, use wax paper between the Die and the card to make it easier to remove from the filigree Die - wax side facing the Die.  Scor the top of the second Die inside the filigree frame as shown in the photo below.

Fold at the scored line and tape onto the first Die to form the card base.  Cut out the embossed and inked layer using the Labels Eight Nestabilities® and adhere to the card base using double sided tape.

Spray white Rose Braid using IMAGINE Crafts® Fireworks!™ Craft Spray in Bamboo Leaves.  I have sprayed twice to get the depth of colour I am wanting - make sure you let it dry between coats.  The material will have a lovely shimmer.  Attach to the card using double sided tape.

I have finished off the card by adding Want2Scrap© - Swirls Finesse above the Roses and a pennant from the Cosmo Cricket™ - Chipboard Alphabet.
