Ink Blended Sunset at the Fair - With Video

Having some fun ink blending today!  I made two cards that started the same way with masking the images and blending the background with Distress Ink.

On this first card, I went a little further by spritzing the ink with water, and Copic coloring the rest of the scene.
On this card, I left the masked images white to contrast the colorful sky.

I created a video to show how I masked and ink blended the sky using blending brushes.  You can see it here or on YouTube:

Supplies:
Stamps:  Purple Onion Designs Carnival Background, Journey Sentiment Set, A Beautiful Day Sentiment Set
Ink:  Distress Ink Picked Raspberry, Carved Pumpkin, Mustard Seed, Wilted Violet,  SSS Intense Black, VersaMark,
Copics: Y21,23, R30,32,35,37,39, RV21, V000, YG61,63,67,G12,14, E25,27, C1,2,4
Other:  Bristol smooth card stock, 3M sticky notes, blending brushes

Thanks for coming over to visit!  I hope you have a wonderful day!

    Your backgrounds look amazing! The darker shades on your first card with wonderful shadows is just like an evening at the fair!

    I love the amazing contrast between the cards you did, Kara! The blended sky is spectacular on both! While I love them both, I have to say that first card with the colored foreground just knocked my socks off! The late evening shadows from the trees and tents makes this a look like photograph of a real fairground!! I am in awe! Hugs, Darnell

    You know how much I love to see your colouring, Kara, so exploring all the detail on your beautifully blended and coloured fairground has been an absolute delight! I also love the contrast between the 'anti-colouring' line art and the vibrancy of the delicious sky! Impossible to choose a favourite ... both of them I think! Big hugs and bisous, Anita :)
