Get Well Card for a Colleague


A colleague at work was injured just before the start of term.  Thankfully she is now back at work and well on the way to recovery.  This is the card I made for everyone to sign.
Stamp one of the Hats 1 ladies onto 7” x 7” stencil card in Onyx Black Versafine ink and heat emboss in clear powder.
Stamp and emboss Get Well Soon (Word Chains 16) in the same manner.
Mask off the lady using the mask which comes with the stamps.
Add Tenacious Teal Artistry ink to a blending mat and transfer to a brayer. Brayer the ink across the card, over the lady.
Repeat with Martini Olive further down the card but slightly overlapping the first colour.
Remove the mask.
Colour with aqua perga liners.
Smooth out with a water brush.
Add an outline/shadow round the lady in black water colour pencil using small circular movements.
Pull out the colour with a water brush.
Mat onto black paper leaving a narrow border.
To finish, add to an 8” x 8” white card blank.
