Hi everyone! It’s time for a Creative Challenge with My Favorite Things. This month we’re showcasing our new line of hybrid inks. Hybrid ink is fast-drying, permanent and waterproof and can be used on many surfaces that might not work well with dye inks. They also produce a softer, almost chalk-like appearance, and that is the effect I wanted on my two samples. On my second card, I have a comparison of the hybrid vs. dye inks so you can see the difference in appearance.
On my first card I used Blissful Butterflies with Razzle Berry, Grape Jelly, Banana Split, Blu Raspberry, Orange Fizz, Sour Apple and Black Licorice hybrids on X-Press It Blending Card.
After stamping, I added a small rhinestone to each butterfly.
Inside, I stamped a sentiment from Sending Thanks as well as a second Razzle Berry butterfly.
On my second card, I layered the inks to see how they would perform. I used Kraft hybrid to stamp the Romantic Script Background onto X-Press It Blending Card. Over the script, I stamped Pretty Poppies flowers and stems using Wild Cherry and Olive hybrid inks. The sentiment was stamped in Chocolate Brown. I used brown Copic markers to add color to the centers of the flowers.
Here’s a close-up of the hybrid inks:
And here are the same ink colors stamped using the dye inks:
The hybrids dried to a softer, more opaque appearance.
On the inside, I adhered a leftover strip of script and added a sentiment from
Grand Peaceful Wildflowers.
Be sure to check out the MFT Blog for direct links to more hybrid ink samples!
Thanks for stopping by!
Thank You (butterflies) card
