Hey y’all. I so enjoy to watercolor and I love that you don’t have to have fancy watercolors to create something special. Today we’ll use VersaColor reinkers in the colors Cardinal and Canary to paint the poppies in a gorgeous reb rubber cling background stamp from My Favorite Things. I’ll also use a VersaColor inkpad in the color Turquoise for the background and to mix with Canary to create greens for the project.
Hello! @AlisonHeikkila here and today and we’ll be focusing on a couple of fun ways to use VersaFine Clair Inks. I love experimenting with different ways to use inks, so I decided to play on my Gel Press Plate and use a detailed 3D Embossing Folder. VersaFine Clair Inks are also great with layering stamps because you can get such crisp images.
Hello there! Today’s tutorial is about texture with Fireworks and Embossing Powder! Do you know that you can create a splattered effect with the embossing powder? Let me share the project with you.
Skill: Beginning
Time: 60 minutes
Directions:
Step 1:
Take a selection of Fireworks! colors of your preference to create the first part of the splatter effect. First, spray a single color over your craft mat. Grab a piece of white smooth cardstock or any type of cardstock and press softly over the mat. Let the paper dry naturally or speed the process with the heat tool if you don’t want to wait a few minutes.
Repeat the above process with all the colors that you wanted to use on your background. In my sample, I used Potter’s Clay, Paris Dusk and Bamboo Leaves.
Step 2:
While the background is in drying process, you can work on the card base. Select a color of VersaFine Clair that coordinates with your background. Stamp lineal images over it. If you want, you can emboss it with clear embossing powder. In my sample, I used VersaFine Clair Shady Lane and don’t emboss de leaves.
Step 3:
In a separate piece of White Smooth Cardstock, I stamped a floral image with VersaFine Clair Glamorous and then covered it with Clear Embossing Powder. Additionally, with a tiny spoon or spatula, I sprinkle Gold Embossing Powder over the flowers and leaves, trying to keep the powder inside of the lines.
Step 4:
With a paint brush, I removed the excess of the powder around the borders of the flower and then, melted the powder with the heat tool.
As you may have noticed, to create the splattered effect, I didn’t use ink, just the powder.
Step 5:
To continue with the process, I resized the background layer in angle. Then, I die cut the floral image with a coordinated die. Additionally, I pasted all the pieces over the card base using crafty foam tape to add more
dimension to the card.
Step 6:
As final touch, stamp a sentiment in a different color and paste over the decorated card with crafty foam.
Thanks for stopping by and don’t forget that you can use different types of ink and embossing powders to create your own look!
Hi there friends and fellow crafters. LeeAnn here with a fun Turnabout Stamping Project anyone can do. This is for all levels. With this stamp set you will start with a single piece of cardstock cut to 6″ x 6″ set up your stamp, ink up the full stamp in one color, turn your paper 1 turn to the right or left, and then ink in 2nd color, turn 1 turn again same direction as before and ink in next color, then one final turn in same direction, ink up again. Once dry cut panel to 4″ x 5.25″, apply to a card base that is 4.25 x 5.5″, I prefer top folding for this. Add your sentiment, some jewels and your project is complete.
Hello Friends! Katy here and today I am excited to share this really cool background technique.
In today’s video tutorial I am sharing how I use a 3D embossing folder and iridescent opaque Mboss embossing powder to create a wedding or anniversary card. The colors I chose definitely give me a beachy vibe and I am loving it!
