Summer Bright

Hello, hostess Tami here with a bright and sunny card featuring ColorBox Archival Dye Ink stamped on glossy paper. 

ColorBox Archival Dye Inks stamp beautifully on glossy paper, producing crisp, clear images. And when you blend different colors of inks on the stamp, using ColorBox Stylus & Tips, you can easily create multi color images quickly and easily...


The background of the card was created by lightly spraying it with ColorBox Stephanie Barnard Spray! in Banana. Stephanie Barnard Sprays! are dye inks that you can spray, so they also work wonderfully on glossy paper. You can also see how prettily the ColorBox Archival Dye Inks blend in this closeup...
