Black Pigma BB Pen by Sakura
Repositionable Sticker Paper
91% Isopropyl Alcohol
Glassboard
Stamping Platform

Instructions:
  1. Create an A6 card from blue cardstock. Set aside.
  2. Place a panel of white cardstock onto the stamping platform.
  3. Use Tuxedo Black Memento Ink to stamp the Cityscape Small at the bottom of the panel and the Flying Pig 2 towards the top right of the image panel.
  4. Stamp both the Cityscape Small and Flying Pig 2 a second time onto repositionable sticker paper.
  5. Use Copic markers to color both the Cityscape Small and Flying Pig 2
  6. Fussy-cut the sticker paper versions and place them over their counterparts on the image panel as masks. 
  7. Brush Limoncello (yellow) ink horizontally over the masked cityscape onto the image panel. 
  8. Brush It's a Girl ink (pink) horizontally over the masked cityscape onto image panel overlapping the yellow ink at the top. 
  9. Brush Suede Shoes ink (blue) horizontally over the top of the image panel and the masked pig. 
  10. Brush Stone Blue (lighter blue) horizontally over the bottom part of the blue ink, across the masked pig, and overlapping the pink ink.
  11. Mist the inked background with Isopropyl Alcohol which will mottle the ink without pilling the paper.
  12. Lift the masks, trim the image panel, and edge it with the black pigment pen.
  13. Mat the image panel with black cardstock.
  14. Adhere the matted image panel to the reserved blue A6 card.
Please note: I didn't add a sentiment to the card because I haven't decided what kind of card it should be. The design could be used for birthday, encouragement, celebrate, or a Bon Voyage card.
