An easy Whitewashing Technique with our Retiring In Colors

February 2, 2022

I had time to play with the Whitewashing technique & our beautiful Calming Camellia stamp set.

This first card features my top favorite color among the retiring 2020-22 In Colors; Misty Moonlight. I hope it returns someday!

I decided to cut the pieces down to fit and layer on one 8 1/2" X 11" piece of Basic White CS. I love saving card stock this way.

Save

The In Color pieces measure 3 3/8" X 4 1/2" and the layering White is 3 1/2" X 4 5/8".

How did I do the Whitewashing Technique? I use our White Craft ink pad and a water painter. I added a few drops of the White Craft ink refill to the inside of the ink pad and added water from the brush. Swirl it around a bit and start painting. You don't need much if you like it soft; I prefer it pretty diluted.

You can see a demonstration in this video; it's the second project.

Heads up!! These 2020-22 In Color will retire at the end of March. If you have the ink pads, make sure you have the ink refills and grab extra card stock or Designer Paper too! See all of this color line here.

***Once the retired list comes out these tend to sell out FAST!

Here's my other favorite of these In Colors; Just Jade. I love this pretty, medium toned green. It fits so beautifully with other colors!

This stamp set is a 'distinktive' set which means it gives multiple hues of color with one inking. Love these so much!

Did you notice that these cards are also monochromatic? I cannot get enough of a single color with a neutral. This technique truly shows off our gorgeous colors!
