TECHNIQUE #2 COLOR BLOCKING

This technique is fun and easy. You can create as many different areas of color as you want and in any pattern and direction that you want. You can be really creative with this one. You could use shapes to do the sponging and that would create a completely different look. Have fun!

Whisper White—5 1/8 x 3 7/8, 8 1/2 x 5 1/2, scrap for greeting

  • Stamp the greeting on the Whisper White scrap and punch with the 1 3/8” Circle Punch
  • Punch 1 1/2” circle from the Basic Black using the 1 1/2” Circle Punch
  • Stamp the large image, flowers, 4 times in Versa Mark on the 5 1/8 x 3 7/8 Whisper White.
  • Sprinkle with Clear Embossing Powder and emboss with the Heat Gun
  • Using the Post It Note cover the area you don’t want to sponge. Sponge with one color

I’m thrilled to share how I created a simple yet stunning sympathy card using the Beautiful Gallery Designer Series Paper and the Prairie Grass Stamp Set. The delicate patterns from the Designer Series Paper perfectly complemented the graceful prairie grass images, giving the card an elegant touch during such a heartfelt time. Personalizing it with heartfelt sentiments made it all the more special. If you’re looking to create something meaningful, this combination is sure to inspire!

Some days these blog posts go so smooth I think I can do them in my sleep, other days everything goes crazy! This was one of those days. It's finally done! This card was CASED from Rachel Tessman with the change of several things. Of course that is allowed in the stamping world. We take each other's ideas and change them to our own liking and republish them. There are so many ideas out there to share. This is another one of the cards that I did with my clubs this month. It looks complicated but it really isn't and comes out to be a fun card to give. Be sure to watch the video if you are making the card. I will give you some trips on how to make it come out beautiful and download the FREE Project Sheet Below.
