Bolder Sweet Moments

My third project with the August Betterpress Society plate, Sweet Moments, was pressed with 49th & Market's new ink in Arctic Blitz, which gave a nice crisp image!

I used a mix of Distress inks and Pinkfresh Studio inks along with the coordinating stencils to colour in my flowers, sticking with bold, strong colours.  The panel was cut with the Hemstitched Rectangles die from Spellbinders.

Since the Arctic Blitz is an unusual blue/green colour, I didn't have any cardstock in my stash that matched it, so I created my own, by inking up the edges of some white cardstock - worked out really well.

The panel was adhered to the inked cardstock mat, then glued onto some patterned paper from my stash - it's a larger 5"x6.5" card.  The sentiment from the set was also pressed in Arctic Blitz, and was attached with some 3D foam adhesive.  A few pale blue enamel dots finished off the card.

You can get a Betterpress Society subscription from The Papercrafter's Workshop.
