Stampin' Up! ® Demonstrator independent supplier paper craft scrapbooking tutorials lincolnshire: How to do block stamping with acrylic stamping blocks

handmade card showing the block stamping technique

Happy Friday all, even though it is almost over for many. You probably wouldn't think of using the blocks you pop your stamps onto as stamps themselves, but you'll learn below that they too can be used to create fun, inked colour to your card making and possibly scrapbook pages.

You can learn different ways to use your acrylic blocks by touring our blog hop where several international demonstrators are sharing their take on this quick and easy technique.

You will love the individuality of each custom made piece using this technique and by varying colours, spritzing and just stamping style you can make lots of original backgrounds and projects.

I find this a very quick technique, apart from possibly a little drying time and whether you use a little, a lot or no water. You will also want to revisit my previous post about creating water colour washes using markers and blocks and perhaps you'll combine these two techniques. It is certainly a bunch of products that allow you to experiment and adapt to suit your own needs without needing to be a rocket scientist!

Have fun with it and enjoy my short video to show you how.

The best thing about this is you can use any colours you want to and can create male, female, kids cards using all sorts of stamp images to suit the occasion. What will you choose?
