For my Technique class last night we made a card using the Sepia Technique. This is a simple technique replicating old sepia pictures.
The flower is from the Friends 24-7 stamp set. Firstly I stamped it in chocolate chip onto Crumb Cake cardstock, then using my blender pen I picked up some Craft White Ink and added white to the flowers and leaves. I added some Chocolate Chip with the blender pen to the stems and sponged the edges. I layered this onto a Very Vanilla and Chocolate Chip mat and then onto a Crumb Cake base card and added some lace ribbon.
This is lovely Alison. I so love crumb cake. It goes with everything.
ReplyDeleteWow! This is beautiful, Alison. I've never heard of the sepia technique, but I love what you've done with it; just gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThanks for explaining how you did this Alison! I think this technique will have to go on my list of things to teach - it is really quite effective - well done you!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous card, Alison...such an effective technique and the lace is the perfect finishing touch. Love it!
