Coloring with Inks & Blender Pen – More Monthly Card Kit Inspiration with Kristina Werner!
Happy Saturday, all! Kristina here with some more inspiration featuring the March 2018 Card Kit! This kit is packed with SO much stuff that it was hard to narrow down what I wanted to use! In the end, I decided to create a one-layer card using the two stamp sets, inks, and a blender pen.
I first stamped the bunny image from the Showers and Flowers stamp set onto a cream notecard from the kit. I stamped it in VersaFine Clair Ink in Morning Mist. I colored the image using a blender pen (I’ve linked a Dove Blender pen below because that’s what I recommend, however in the video I used a clear blender from Tombow because that’s what I had on hand) and five different ink colors: Green Leaf, Stone, Catkin, and Hot Lips from Simon Says Stamp, and Wild Rose from Lawn Fawn.
I used the same ink colors to stamp the ribbon border stamp from the Choose Joy stamp set on the bottom half of the card. I also stamped a greeting from that stamp set in the Morning Mist ink.
To finish off the card, I added shimmer using the Nuvo Glitter Glaze brush pen from the kit to the pink areas on the coloring.
I hope you enjoy the video! Thanks for stopping by today! You can get the March 2018 Card Kit HERE, or subscribe to receive this kit and future kits HERE.

This single-layer card is a beautiful one! I just everything about it—the offset composition, the gorgeous palette of colors, the stripes at the bottom, the sweetly colored stamp…even the choice of cream card! Just lovely!

Kristina, I LOVE a one layer card and you certainly did a fantastic job on this one! This is such a great kit with so much in it to work with. I can see endless ideas using it from encouragement to birthday and beyond… WOW, a great example of the versatility.
It’s always hard for me to make a single layer card because I love layering, but this is so pretty and it looks 3 dimensional with that ribbon stamp. Thanks for the inspiration.
Beautiful single layer card, Kristina. Thanks for the inspiration on using off-white cardstock.
Beautifully watercolored and designed. Love the soft spring colours.
Great card and colors. Thanks for sharing.

Like the wonderful coloring. It is raining here in Central TX this morn. Walked my dog in the rain. I call my dog ‘the rain, sleet or snow dog’ because she likes to walk/go outside no matter the weather.

Great kit. Love your card.
I love your card Kristina, the kit is adorable this month.
I didn’t know the technic with the blender pen, so thanks for that idea!
I love how even though you didn’t use the stickers, you used the sheet’s color palette to create this card. Also, I’ve never used a blender pen, but that’s great that one can use ink pads that way. Thanks for showing us this great technique!
Thank you so much for the inspiration! I can’t wait to get my kit and start trying this technique.
Brilliant! She always makes it look so easy. It’s not.?
Live the ribbon border stamp. I like the design here.
Great work here and love the color mixture too – TFS
