I LOVE the bright, eye-catching colors she choose; Granny Apple Green & Poppy Parade. Can you see that she used both the Light & Dark colors in these Blends markers?
She also used the Wink of Stella on the punched bow and 'ribbon' on the front. See that cute baby tag? That's part of the punch too!
Can you see how the front flap catches on the greeting on the left? Love this!
Clear Block Stamping; a fun & easy background for quick cards!
Have you ever tried Block Stamping? If you have a clear block and ink pads you can do this!
I shared these cards on Facebook Live last week Tuesday. You can watch the replay below. Remember every Tuesday morning at 11 am CT I'm Live on FB here.
I chose a few different stamp sets and inks for the cards I made. I also have a few tips for you when doing this technique.
The above card features Soft Seafoam and In The Pines stamp set. The White layer is 4 3/4" X 3 1/2". I inked the 'H' block in Soft Seafoam ink and spritzed it with a mixture of rubbing alcohol and Champagne Shimmer Paint.
You can use water but that takes longer to dry and I wanted a bit of shimmer. Shimmer Paint mixes well with rubbing alcohol. I added random strips of Shaded Spruce CS across the card. Quick & easy!
This card features Calypso Coral (2" X 5 1/2"), Petal Pink and the Queen Anne's Lace stamp set. The textured layer is from the set of Wrapped in Texture embossing folders.
Can you see the marbling effect here? I inked the block in Seaside Spray ink and then added a few swirls of Misty Moonlight with a Stampin' Write marker. *Watch the video below.
I used the Snowflake Wishes set on this card and the Flowers for Every Season ribbon/twine combo pack. The colors are Seaside Spray & Misty Moonlight. The White layer is 3 1/2" X 4 3/4" and the Misty Moonlight is 3 3/4" square – a scrap I had.
Tips on the Clear Block Technique:
Use a light color of ink
Choose a block that fits on your card stock
Ink it and spritz with either water or rubbing alcohol until it almost starts to puddle.
Add a swirl of darker color with a marker after inking the block and before spritzing.
Alcohol dries faster than water
Add a bit of Shimmer Paint to your alcohol for additionals glitz!
Whisper White card stock works just fine; no need for thicker papers
She cut the treat box dies into separate pieces (Garden Green & Vanilla) for her card front. It also opens up to reveal a gift card holder inside. Lots of texture with the Winter Snow embossing folder too!
