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!

  • Hippo’s & Dandelions?

    Today I have two more swap cards made by my talented Flowerbug's Team.  I still have more to share yet! 

    The first card is made by a brand new demonstrator; Tracey.  This was her first swap too!  She used the new Hippo Happiness bundle. 

    July Tracey Hippo Save

    Her colors are Just Jade, Daffodil Delight and Magenta Madness.  She stamped her own background using some of the images in the set.  That swirly die-cut we all love is from the Painted Labels die-cuts.  Such a sweet card! 

    I LOVE these dies; look at all of the labels. There are 9 of them!

    Karen made this pretty card below with the new Dandelions 3D embossing folder.

    She used our Vellum card stock; did you know when you run it through an embossing folder it turns 'white' or opaque?  So cool!  You'll start looking at using vellum and your folders more now, right?  She added adhesive to the back of the flower heads and behind the greeting.  

    Her sentiment if from the Forever Fern stamp set and is punched out with the new Rectangular Postage Punch. 

    More swap cards coming up!

  • Nothing’s Better Than cards

    Have you noticed the 'Nothing's Better Than' bundle yet?  You will want to check it out on page 91 of the Annual Catalog.  

    Candace made two CUTE cards with it and the new Rainbow Glimmer paper. 

    First up is a fun card with a ton of stitched die-cut circles from glimmer paper for a background.

    Her colors are Just Jade with Misty Moonlight and Early Espresso. The stitched circles are all part of the Rainbow Glimmer paper!

    Her next card uses the same bundle except she stamped and colored the chocolates and cookies this time.  I believe she used watercolor pencils for her coloring.

    The 'Chocolate' greeting die-cut is the same Rainbow glimmer paper seen here!  You can see this cute bundle here.

    Huge Stamping Sale!!!

    This weekend is our annual Stamping sale where many of my customers sell off their excess paper crafting supplies.  I have a fantastic crew of helpers I call my 'committee'.  They set up the sale, do the books, and basically run the entire thing!  I am so blessed to have them.  Luckily they love it but it's a ton of work!

    If you live near us in ND it's so worth a road trip!!!  Gather some friends and stop in Saturday! 

    Remember, this is not my stash!  I usually do not sell things here anymore.  I save my items for my BOGO sales.

    Because of the huge quantity of items and the large number of sellers, I am unable to take requests for wanted items. I'm so sorry about that. I know these photos are a big tease to those who do not live near me and I apologize!

    If you live near us in Minot, ND it's well worth a road trip!  It's Saturday from 9-3 pm for everyone.  The Early Bird sale starts Friday for my current customers (those who have shopped with me in the last 6 months).
