While I was Blog Surfing the other day I came across the Inkspiration Colour Challenge. I quite liked the sound of the colours and thought (since I’m being a Brayer’er at the moment)….Mmmm – I could Brayer those. So away I went.
I actually made a couple of Cards. And I like them both although this is more the look I was going for.
And the thing that I found interesting about this was that by the time I did my Brayer background, stamping and 3D imagey thing – I decided that I did not want to add any embellishments. So there it is… Just Ink & Paper!!
If you’re wondering – here’s the other card I did.
So I was going for the 3D kind of look here too….but I did not really work. I did it on Glossy Card – and spritz my flower image with water before I stamped it so it would slide around a bit. But as I say – it didn’t work. Also….NOTE TO SELF – Don’t Brayer on Glossy card again!!
Yep. You’re definitely a brayer godess!! Love them both, but especially the first. 🙂
STUNNING!!!! Absolutely STUNNING!!!!! YOu’ve made that scary colour combo look absolutely AMAZING!!!!
You don’t need a sentiment on this card, it makes it’s own stunning statement!!! Love your 3D effect, amazing! Strangely enough, I brayer better on gloss, weird huh? ;P

Hi Chantell
Love your first card. When I had lessons many years ago on using the brayer we used gloss card first and I only use gloss card when I brayer!! The finish is always soft and smooth and if you do it right even.
Mmmmm – perhaps I need more practice then? I found it coloured quickly which I liked – but it took me ages to get it smooth and without lines – which I didn’t like. Will keep working on it.
Stunning card

Wow Chantell, this is really gorgeous! I admire people like you who can use the brayer effectively…no matter how many times I play with it I have to file my work in the bin!!! lol Both of these cards are amazing, I love them both.
love sally 🙂
Beautiful! Love what you’ve done with these colours, and I really like the ‘slidey’ effect of the image on your second card. Don’t give up on brayering on glossy card … I find it more forgiving than on matte card.
stunning, love the 3D effect on the first one
WOW!! I’m almost lost for words Chantell. What a gorgeous card andI just love this stamp set, one of my faves.
Have a great day
🙂
Absolutely beautiful work! Well done!
Wow your brayer backgrounds are great. These look so good well done!
I love how simple this is it totally doesn’t need any embellies!! It is sooo stunning just as it is!!! And the design is super wonderful!! LOVE IT!

YOUR WORK IS JUST LOVELY!!!
I love this card. I am a new demonstrator. Can you tell me how to brayer like this please.
I’d like to give it a try.
