How to achieve the Inked Block Technique; you only need 3 things!

March 31, 2022
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.

Save

You need a clear block, Stampin' Write markers and a spritzer filled with water. Below are the measurements for the cards.

Save

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.

A cute box with free template and video tutorial too!

March 30, 2022

Marilyn shared this sweet treat box at our last Flowerbug's Team Meeting. She cased it from Pootles. It looks almost like a mini milk carton.

Save

Her box is 2 X 2" and 3 1/4" tall. She used the Pansy Petals designer paper, Soft Succulent card stock and ink. This pretty DSP is retiring now; get it here while supplies last.

I made one for a recent FB Live video too. I chose to use the Flowering Fields DSP; it's so springy!

Save

They're made in Pear Pizzazz and Fresh Freesia card stock and the greeting is from the Celebrating You stamp set seen here. The greeting tag is from the Stitched So Sweetly dies which are retiring now and available while supplies last! See the dies here.

She made up a template and another sheet of card stock showing you how it looks after trimming and cutting the template as shown. Watch the video here or below to see how it's made.

Save

It's 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" and is similar to a 2 4 6 8 box. Score on the short side at 1 1/2", 3 1/2" & 4 1/2". Score on the long side at 2", 4", 6", & 8". Then cut away the areas crossed off and cut up to the score lines as shown.

You'll need 4 pieces of Designer Paper measuring 1 3/4" square. And 4 pieces measuring 1 3/4" X 3/4" for the top. She punched two holes in the top flaps to thread ribbon through to tie in a bow.

Thanks so much for sharing this wonderful project Marilyn!
