Hello everyone!
Today is Day 2 of the Lawn Fawn + Perfect Paper Crafting Week and I've got a fun card featuring The Perfect Airbrush to share with you!
(p.s. Interested in purchasing any of the great products you're seeing this week from the Perfect Paper Crafting online store? Use code lawn10% on orders placed from Perfect Paper Crafting.)
I used The Perfect Airbrush with Distress Markers to create the snowflake background on my card.
I die cut a piece of smooth white cardstock using the largest rectangle from the Small Stitched Rectangles Lawn Cuts die collection and masked off the edges with post it tape. I die cut the Stitched Snowflakes Lawn Cuts dies from Eclipse Masking Tape and layed them over the die cut rectangle, masking off parts of the background.
I used The Perfect Airbrush with the Chipped Sapphire, Evergreen Bough and Tumbled Glass Distress Markers to airbrush color over the masked off die cut background. Once I had the coverage I wanted, I peeled off all the maskes to reveal the awesome snowflake background! No muss, no fuss... just an easy airbrushed background in minutes!
I stamped and embossed the greeting from Deck The Halls on vellum using Versamark Ink and silver embossing powder. I stamped the banner around the greeting from the Penelope's Blossoms Stamp Set and heat embossed it with white embossing powder before die cutting with the coordinating Penelope's Blossoms banner die.

This card looks so great, Nichol! Love how easy this tool makes the airbrushed look (without a super expensive machine)! Do they work with copics, or only round markers?

I love the amazing airbrushing!! I have been wondering if this tool really worked all that well, and you just answered that for me!! Would love to try this.

Hi Nichol...your card looks fresh and soft or delicate maybe...trying to find the right word here. If using the air-brush tool creates this look....I need one. Thank you for the opportunity.
