The easy way to do the Whitewashing Technique; with video

February 8, 2022

I've been playing with the Whitewashing Technique lately. Today I'm sharing a card I made on Facebook Live with the Honeybee Home bundle.

Save

You can see another group of cards I used this technique on here.

Save

Please watch the video to see how to do this. Here are some tips:

I stamped the main image using Gorgeous Grape ink onto the same color card stock.
Let it dry a bit and color the image in with White Craft ink and a water painter brush.
If you want to see the stamped image you'll want to use a light amount of White Craft ink.
I add water to some White Craft ink in a puddle and use that to 'paint'.
You can paint with strokes to indicate lines on your image.

I used the Heart & Home doilies under the Tasteful Label die-cut.

The background paper is the Simply Marbelous Sale-a-Bration DSP that I added a bit of Highland Heather ink to.

Here's the video! Click on the picture below to watch it. The Whitewashing Technique is the 2nd project I share.

Greenery Lane card with the new Washi Tape

February 26, 2026

I was playing around with the Greenery Lane bundle and the new coordinating Washi Tape and created this card:

Save

My colors are Garden Green with White; simple. I adhered the Washi Tape to a piece of White CS and then cut one piece into a large circle and used the coordinating dies to cut four of the leaves. You can see the bundle here and below.

Save

The Greenery Lane Washi tape coordinates with many of the dies in the bundle. It’s so pretty in shades of green. See it online here.

Save

I also used the Nested Essential dies for the greeting, the Spotlight on Nature dies and the Textured Notes dies (unavailable right now but on the Last Chance list).

Save

If you look at my greeting ‘hugs’ you’ll notice it’s not alone. I carefully inked just the ‘hugs’ with my ink pad since I wanted a short greeting.
I hope you like it and are inspired by product and the layout.

Great way to use the Extraordinary Washi Tape with video

February 23, 2026

We made this beautiful card at my February card clubs. It features the Extraordinary Washi Tape from the Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog.

Save

Aren’t they pretty? And because the washi tape includes two color combinations (all in one roll) I was able to offer two choices of colors. You can see this pretty Washi tape here.

Save

It also has a stamp & die bundle that matches it perfectly. I used only the single die seen here. What I love about this die is it cuts out all of one huge panel of flowers/leaves all at once! It’s a most amazing product, (well named) and incredible that you get 16 gorgeous flowers cut all at once!

Save

That neat embossing folder on the large Vanilla is called Beautiful Pattern and can be seen here.

Save

My colors include Old Olive and Very Vanilla, plus Calypso Coral with Petal Pink and Berry Burst with Fresh Freesia. We wrapped Old Olive twine around the Vanilla layer twice and tied it into a bow to anchor the flowers & greeting.

The other bundle I used is the Words of Beauty seen here. So many possibilities for greetings in this one.

Save

A few other dies used here are theTextured Notes dies seen here (which are retiring but unavailable right now) and the Label Me Grateful dies which just retired.

I also used the ‘With You in Mind’ stamp set for the inside: A thin 1/4″ strip of matching CS finished it off nicely.

Save

I hope you watch the video below to get the tips on using these products and finishing the card. Be sure to subscribe to my YouTube channel while you’re there!
