What??? Colour DSP??? A Case plus a tutorial

 What do you get when you add colour to some already spectacular DSP?  Even more spectacular paper.

When I saw cards made with this altered DSP on Pinterest I tracked down Tina Wardell,  the demonstrator who made them. I will provide a link to her video tutorial at the bottom of this post.                                                                

So Tina thank you!  I love your cards so much I cased them exactly as you made them.  

               


Don't you just love what Tina has done to the DSP?

I provide a brief pictoral tutorial below the pictures.  



A tree die cut in Early Espresso card stock was added to the card front along the edge of the altered DSP.  The canopy was die cut from another pattern of this DSP and added to the tree top using dimensionals. Two birds die cut from some Basic White which had some Pacific Point and Cajun Craze added were added to the tree top. 

The second card depicts more of a fall scene:


The only difference between the two cards is the colour of the canopy and the colour of the birds.  I also changed the sentiment.

Below is a pictoral tutorial showing the process of colouring the DSP:

Supplies Needed:  
  • Pacific Point, Mango Melody, Cajun Craze inks
  • 3 blender brushes
  • Piece of DSP 4 by 5 1/4"
 



Start by adding Pacific Point ink to the top of the DSP.  Add darker at top edges and lighter towards center of DSP

Add Mando Melody ink below the Pacific Point colour, blending with Pacific Point ink above it.
Finally, add Cajun Craze ink at the bottom 1/3.
Cut the 4 by 5 1/4" into two equal pieces and make into cards.
