How to make Sunset Cards with Paradise Palms

2 beautiful sunset card ideas featuring Stampin' Up! Paradise palms set, ink and blending brushes by Patty Bennett. Free Video Tutorial!

 

I had a wonderful time sharing how to make these sunset Paradise Palm cards yesterday with you during my weekly live video!! 

Missed the Video?

If you missed the video tutorial, I’ve pasted the replay at the bottom of this blog post!  Or watch it on my YouTube channel.

After using Stampin’ Up! Blending Brushes to create the sunset, and then stamping the water, trees and ground, I decided to try embossing my stitched rectangle with the Tasteful Textile embossing folder and I really love the result!!  It looks kind of like a Hawaiian shirt, or material!

I took a photo of this card before embossing it so you could see the difference.  What do you think?

My sunset skies are inked with Blending Brushes and a variety of the colors shown above in this post.  I’d recommend Mango Melody, Calypso Coral and Flirty Flamingo to start with, then you can always add more colors if you wish.

TIP!  I tried this out and it worked well.. I added some white craft ink with a Blender Pen to simulate some crashing waves on the sand!
