Kitsch Flamingo Lips

Hello hello crafty friends!  Thanks for coming back to another tutorial.  Today I would be sharing how I made this super fun Valentine’s Day card using the new Tim Holtz color Kitsch Flamingo.  This color is AWESOME!  We need to just jump into it.

I started off with getting an A2 size card panel using Neenah Solar white 110lb cardstock.  Spray some Pixie spray to the back of the SSS Hot Lips stencil and placed it on the panel to keep it in place.

I got the regular ink blending tool and applied Kitsch Flamingo all of the lips.  Use a light hand for this part.  Then I grabbed the smallest ink blending brush and applied some Festive Berries around the lip line and started to blend inward.  I’d grab the 2nd smallest blending brush and added some Kitsch so that my lips would blend better.

When the blending was done, I took these lips to the 80’s and added some shine.  SO I added some Transparent Glossy paste.  When that was done, set it aside to let it dry completely.  (clean off your stencil and work area)

While my panel was drying, I got some SSS White Glitter cardstock and used some Kitsch Flamingo very lightly on the love die cut from Simon as well.  (run it through your die cutting machine.)

Once the panel is dry, clean it up a bit by trimming the edges.  Adhere your “Love” die cut to the panel. Add your  trimmed down panel to an A2 size card base using some Neenah cardstock also.  I used some GinaK connect glue and adhered my panel to my card base.  I finished off my card with some embellishments.

That’s it.  Easy, right!?!? The products I used for this card and where I purchased them are listed below. At no extra charge to you for using the list, you can click on them and go shopping. Thank you so much for stopping by and I will see you next time and good luck!  If you’d like to see other cards I’ve done using this technique, click here.
