Doodling Technique - So FUN!


Here's a fun technique to share with you today.  It's called DOODLING.  I stamped my solid images and outlined them with a Basic Black Stampin' Write Marker.  So easy and fun.  It's something you can do while your relaxing in front of the TV.

Here is a list of ingredients:

Ink:  Soft Suede; Pink Pirouette; So Saffron; Pear Pizzazz
Cardstock:  Pink Pirouette; Watermelon Wonder; Soft Suede; Whisper White

Watermelon Wonder 5-1/4” x 4”
Soft Suede 2-1/2” x 4”

Basic Instructions:
  1. Emboss Watermelon Wonder layer in the Fluttering Embossing Folder and Big Shot - adhere to Pink Pirouette card base
  2. Ink up Hardwood background stamp with Soft Suede ink - *leave the stamp laying on your table and bring the Soft Suede layer of cardstock to the stamp - cover with a sheet of typing weight paper and rub with a flat hand* - adhere to Watermelon Wonder layer
  3. Re-ink Hardwood background stamp with Soft Suede ink and use the typing weight paper on the stamp to remove ink
  4. Now place the 3-7/8” x 2-7/8” Whisper White layer on the Hardwood stamp and repeat from * (this is called “inking off” - allowing you to create a very light image with the same color of ink
  5. Sponge edges of layer with Soft Suede ink
  6. Stamp greeting, flower, stem and leaves as shown
  7. Adhere to 4” x 3” Whisper White layer and wrap with Linen Thread 3-4 time - tie in a bow

What is Inking Off?


Another pretty card using the Garden in Bloom stamp set.  I combined this set with the Hardwood Background stamp for a shabby chic look.  This card uses a technique called “STAMPING OFF” - allowing you to use one color of ink to get two very different looks.  See the directions below to see how easy it is to use this technique.

Here is a list of ingredients:

Stamps:  Garden in Bloom; Hardwood Background
Ink:  Soft Suede; Pink Pirouette; So Saffron; Pear Pizzazz
Cardstock:  Pink Pirouette; Watermelon Wonder; Soft Suede; Whisper White
Accessories:  Big Shot; Fluttering Embossing Folder; Linen Thread; Stampin’ Sponges; Dimensionals

Dimensions:
Pink Piroutte 8-1/2" x 5-1/2"
Watermelon Wonder 5-1/4” x 4”
Soft Suede 2-1/2” x 4”
Whisper White 4” x 3” & 3-7/8” x 2-7/8”

Basic Instructions:
  1. Emboss Watermelon Wonder layer in the Fluttering Embossing Folder and Big Shot - adhere to Pink Pirouette card base
  2. Ink up Hardwood background stamp with Soft Suede ink - *leave the stamp laying on your table and bring the Soft Suede layer of cardstock to the stamp - cover with a sheet of typing weight paper and rub with a flat hand* - adhere to Watermelon Wonder layer
  3. Re-ink Hardwood background stamp with Soft Suede ink and use the typing weight paper on the stamp to remove ink
  4. Now place the 3-7/8” x 2-7/8” Whisper White layer on the Hardwood stamp and repeat from * (this is called “inking off” - allowing you to create a very light image with the same color of ink
  5. Sponge edges of layer with Soft Suede ink
  6. Stamp greeting, flower, stem and leaves as shown
  7. Adhere to 4” x 3” Whisper White layer and wrap with Linen Thread 3-4 time - tie in a bow
