​Tutorial: I started with creating the background first. Using my MISTI stamping tool, white cardstock panel, and three distress oxide inks (shown below), I stamped this musical background. Heat set. Then blended some distress oxide-cracked pistachio ink around the edges, heat set and adhered to card. I wanted a worn, vintage, aged look for the musical background. Next using my MISTI and a white cardstock panel I stamped Winnie the pooh and piglet with Versafine Clair-Nocturne black ink, which I love, but it will smear with alcohol markers. So I let it dry over night, but you can heat set or clear heat emboss it too. But the next day, it was totally fine to color with alcohol markers (shown below) without any smearing. I love pink and green, so I played with a few colors to get this soft springy vintage look. What's neat about Unity is they created matching dies for many of the Pooh stamps too, which I got too! Using my Big Shot and some purple craft tape to hold the die in place, I cut out the Pooh image. Cute, right? I usually have a purpose when I make cards, but this cutie didn't have one yet. So, using my MISTI, a scrap of white cardstock, and a sweet all occasion sentiment. I stamped it with cracked pistachio and inked the edges with worn lipstick to match the background. Pooh and Piglet image kind of got lost on the musical background, so I pulled out this beautiful pink and green stripe pattern paper from Unity. Using my Big Shot machine, I cut out a die cut stitched circle and that grounded the Pooh imagine and the sentiment. And gave it more of a focal point. It also looked like a muted sunset too. Then I cut out an A2 white 110lb card base (not shown) and adhered all the pieces to make the card. I adhered a pink watercolor pattern paper to the base, adhered the musical background to the pink panel, adhered the circle sunset to the musical panel, then adhered Pooh and Piglet and the sentiment to the sunset circle. And there you have an all occasion card, great for any time of year. What do you think?​
