I shared the Inked Block technique on Tuesday's Facebook Live video. It's fun, easy and you need just 3 things!
I chose to feature the Garden Wishes stamp set & a variety of colors. This first one is Highland Heather, Gorgeous Grape & Pacific Point.
You need a clear block, Stampin' Write markers and a spritzer filled with water. Below are the measurements for the cards.
Watch the video here to see how it's done. It's the first of 3 projects I share.
Tips for success:
- Use Stampin' Write 'water based' markers on your block; do not use Blends which are permanent markers.
- Start with the lightest color first so you don't get a dark color on your marker tip
- After filling up the block with ink (I colored on the diagonal) spritz it with water until dots form.
- The more water you add the better the inks blend. But don't do too much or the colors blend too much.
- Press the block directly on your White card stock and hold for a few second.
- Have a tissue or paper towel ready to dab up excess water off the paper.
The Stampin' Write markers I used on this next card are Granny Apple Green, Coastal Cabana and Pacific Point.
The card below has a softer feel. The colors are Pale Papaya, Pumpkin Pie & Polished Pink.
