An easy Whitewashing Technique with our Retiring In Colors


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.  

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!

  • New Horizons Side-step Easel cards with video tutorial


    I shared these fancy fold cards on a recent FB live and thought you'd like to see them too. I used the gorgeous New Horizons designer paper seen here.   

    Each Tuesday at 11 am CT I host a FB live. Follow me on FB here so you don't miss anything. 

    It's a unique side-step card.  This one is a vertical layout.  See the horizontal layout below. My stamps include the On the Horizon bundle and Let's Sail bundle.  See those neat 'pebbles' I added to the bottom?  Those are in the 2022 January-June catalog but are currently out of stock.  They'll be back at the end of March.  

    The global supply issues are affecting our product quite a bit.  Stampin' Up! is doing everything they can to keep us updated and getting our products as quickly as possible.
