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.

Save

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!

Save

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!

I made these cards to send out to everyone who purchased the Starter Kit from me in June.

Save

I used the Gorgeous Posies stamp set (seen here) in Mint Macaron and Calypso Coral. I just love our Distinktive style stamps!!

Save

I stamped the large flower once in full strength Calypso Coral ink, stamped below without reinkining, and then lastly off to the right side. Look at the gorgeous leaves; they are two different images. Both full strength ink but the solid style leaf is the Distinktive style so you get multiple hues of ink with just one stamping. I did stamp the flower center dots image using White Craft ink.

The greeting is from a stamp set only Demonstrators can purchase. The die is from the Tasteful Labels dies.

I asked my Flowerbug's Team what the best part of being a Stampin' Up! Demonstrators is. I loved hearing their thoughts!

Discounts on stuff I would want to order anyway!
Getting to see and order from new catalogs before everyone else!
Ordering what I want, when I want at a discounted rate and getting hostess goodies.
Social gatherings with friends & meeting new friends is a bonus!
I like that there's no pressure to sell, sell, sell. If you are motivated (and there is support to keep you motivated) the sky is the limit. But if you are in it for the joy of a creative outlet you have support for that too! Supportive upline and peers.
In no particular order: discount, first glance at catalogs, meeting with and creating with new friends, lots of support for taking your business where you want to go.
My favorite perk is discount with early sneak peeks, but I love the friendships made, with the help, support and sharing of ideas amongst each other.

If you have a big wish list and/or place regular orders you should REALLY consider joining my Flowerbug's family so you get a discount off everything you purchase!

The starter kit is only 99.00 and FREE shipping, and you pick out 125.00 in Stampin' Up! product of your choice, PLUS just for June you can add on ANY Bundle for free! That's HUGE!

You also get a FREE Paper Pumpkin kit (valued at $21), free catalogs (8 each of 2 different catalogs) and other business supplies like order forms etc. Look!
