Welcome lovely crafters to our Totally Techniques blog hop from Stampin' Up! demonstrators all around the Stampin' Up! world sharing spritz and splatter techniques for you to use in your card making and scrapbooking.
I've used a brand new stamp set with coordinating dies to share the Eden's Garden Suite with you. It launches on 2 November and includes beautiful papers, gems and cotton paper along with this gorgeous bundle. NB the patterned papers, cotton paper and gems are only available whilst supplies last and will not be in the Spring catalogue.
Here's how I made my card.
1. Use a blending brush to add Soft Seafoam Ink to one side of white card 9.5cm x 14.3cm.
2. Add the same colour ink to a text stamp, I used the one from Very Versailles, and smudge off some of the ink with your finger or a piece of kitchen towel then partially stamp it onto the card.
3. Use a stampin' write marker and flick the nib inside the pen top to create splattering across your design. I also used a drop of re inker bottle ink on a stamping block mixed with a drop or two of water from my large water painter and then dipped the water painter brush into the inky solution and tapped the brush with my finger over the blended area to add extra splatters.
4. Stamp a sentiment onto a die cut white card from the Eden dies and remove one decorative end to be able to tuck it under a clear heat embossed die cut wreath of Evening Evergreen card. Before sticking this sentiment strip gently blend ink onto the piece. I used the other decorative end to add heat and stick powder and gilded leafing to tuck behind this layer.
5. Add a gold die cut and a die cut butterfly stamped in black with a black baker's twine bow.
To finish the card I stamped the text in the corner of the base card before rolling the top left hand corner of my design layer. I stuck all of this piece then onto the card base and added some Eden gems coming next month.
Detailed, but CAS (clean and simple) all at the same time!
I can't wait to share the new Eden's Garden Suite with my class attendees as it is so beautiful. I hope you think so too. Enjoy the hop.
Keep safe and keep stamping
