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!

  • Nuts About Squirrels fun fold card with Stamparatus video


    We made this cute card at my October card clubs.  See the video towards the bottom of this post. 

    It features the Nuts About Squirrels stamp set in the Holiday catalog.  Click here to see it. 

    My colors include Soft Suede, Pumpkin Pie, Vanilla & Pear Pizzazz.  See the tag?  We stamped directly on the die-cut tag using Soft Suede ink. This tag is from the Pretty Pillow Box dies on page 9 of the Holiday catalog. 

    Measurements:

    • Soft Suede 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" and 4 1/4" plus 1 7/8" X 5 1/4"
      Pumpkin Pie 3 1/2" X 4 3/4"
      Very Vanilla 3 1/4" X 4 1/2" for front & inside
      Cork paper – scrap for die-cut tag (Pretty Pillow Box dies)

    The Stamparatus made stamping the squirrel images so easy & perfectly placed too! See that here.  It's the best stamp positioning tool out there!

    Watch this video below for lots of tips.

    I have a few more Eden's Garden cards to share today.  This first one features the stamps & dies.  I know many of you are loving the Ever Eden Designer paper but the stamps & dies are also lovely!  

    This card is one of the cards in my free 4 card class this month.  Anyone who places an order over $50 receives a pre-cut card class & PDF.  The kit does not include stamping but everything is die-cut for you; even the bow is done!

    Do you see the texture on the large Soft Succulent layer?  That is from the die itself; not an embossing folder.  You can see how that's done in the video shown here. 

    I used Evening Evergreen & Cherry Cobbler ink and the Eden's Garden stamp set. 

    The next card features the pretty Ever Eden Designer Paper as well as the stamps & dies seen here.  It's a unique layout with just a few layered 2" squares, a stamped background and the pretty greeting label die-cuts. 

    Note the layering effect on these dies.  I share how to do that on the video link above.
