Zig Zag Print cards

Recently I posted several ’tiled’ collage cards on the blog and mentioned there would be more to come. Today’s cards once again feature gel printed panels arranged and decorated in two ways.

I used three different gel prints to ’tile’ the card above, a plain blue print, a print created with a zig-zag stencil and a print made with the an impression from an embossing folder. To tie together the dark blue, light blue and yellow + blue prints I added a navy wildflower (Tim Holtz) and navy ink splatter.

To create the square birthday card below I used ’tiles’ from the same print but rearranged them on the card front so they didn’t fit together like a jigsaw.

The brassy-gold paint used on the gel print prompted me to die-cut letters, stars and the word birthday from a similar colour cardstock to create a sentiment. This post includes affiliate links from Foiled Fox. If you buy through these links I receive a small commission at no extra cost to you.

    This is such a pretty way of using your prints Heather and you always seem to get a good blend of colours..dark with light on the first and then a darker palette on the second, but both absolutely great. x

    I love the imaginative ways you use your gelli prints and am impressed how perfectly your colors match! This is such a wonderful idea and one I’d like to try. What fun cards and better yet they look fun to do!
