– Greetings friends and fellow crafters, it’s LeeAnn here with a Fun Clean Stenciled Card that evokes Summer in my brain. First because living in Florida I always remember beginning of summer getting a Hurricane Tracking Map at the grocery store and mom hanging it on the fridge. Anytime there was a hurricane out in the Atlantic we would track it.
I also love cruising, and have been on many cruises in this area of the Caribbean.
There are a lot of cruisers in the family. I can put a Rhinestone to mark the ports they are visiting and give to them as a Bon Voyage card.

Use a Sponge Dauber to apply Mediterranean Blue Brilliance ink horizontally across the top of a 4” x 5.25” panel of white cardstock. Use a Sponge Dauber to apply Pearlescent Sky Blue Brilliance ink below the darker blue. Use both daubers to create a blended shimmery sky.

Hello crafty friends! Today, I have the easiest and simple tutorial to make a unique thank you card or any type of cards. Let me share the project with you.
Skill: Beginning
Time: 60 minutes
Directions:
To make my model, I decided to use Radian Neon 4 Warm for two reasons. The first one is because I love the colors of this set of inks and the second, because Radian Neon brings the opportunity to create textures.
Step 1:
Select the colors of inks that you want to use in small sizes pads. For this idea, you can use any of our 4 Inkpads or small presentations like the Dew Drop of other inks, like Brilliance, VersaMagic, Delicata or Memento, just to mention some.
Step 2:
Place the entire ink pad over the cardstock in the direction that you want the colors. I press mine three times over the card under different pression to obtain different textures in each color.
Step 3:
Let the ink dry naturally or speed the process with a heat tool. If you want, you can cover the stamped blocks of ink with clear embossing powder and emboss them with the heat tool, to obtain a better texture.
Step 4:
Stamp a sentiment over the color blocks using VersaFine Clair Nocturne to add a major contrast over your card.
Step 5:
Heat embosses the sentiment with clear embossing powder and paste the decorated layer over your card base.
As you can see this is a really simple way to use your ink pads as stamps. Depending on the pression and intensity that you apply over the ink pad or 4Ink Pad, you will obtain different looks.
Thanks for stopping by and remember, you don’t need to create complicated projects. Just use the best inks and let your creativity shine!
