Inky Doodles Stamps, Glue and Seal and Distress Inks–Trio of Trees Card

 

Hi Everyone

Today MJ has been playing with her new Inky Doodle Stamps and this time has chosen to use the ‘Topiary’ set.  She loves this set as there are so many elements to it and lots of things you can do with it.  She has chosen to use it as Trees (but she already has lots of other ideas of how to use it to share with you at a later date!).

 

 

What MJ did:-

1. Take a 5 1/4” x 5 1/4” square of white card for stamping.
2. Using the large slim Topiary and the Peacock feather stamps.  Ink the Topiary with Peeled Paint ink and the feather with Peacock Feathers.
3. Next stamp the feather onto the top of the inked Topiary stamp and create a pattern as in picture above (this is called ‘Kiss Stamping’).  Then stamp on to the white card.  Repeat twice more in a row.
4. Stamp the small tree trunk at base of each tree using Aged Mahogany.
5. Take a small paintbrush and paint the top of the tree with the Glue and Seal.  Be careful not to go over edges of image.  Dry with heat tool.
6. Use Tumbled Glass ink and ink blending tool to add the blue to tree edges by blending outwards from centre of tree to create halos of colour. Gently buff away excess ink from trees.
7. To finish stamp the large and small peacock and wording stamps using Black Archival ink.
8. Mat and layer to suit.  Enjoy!

Inky Doodle Stamps, Distress Ink Markers and White Embossing Powder–Butterflies Card

Hi Everyone


MJ has been having a quick play with the new Inky Doodle stamps that arrived in store yesterday. She just couldn’t resist taking a set home to play with!


She’s kept it nice, simple and clean using vellum, white embossing powder, Distress Ink Markers and Kraft card.

 

What MJ did: -

1. First cut a piece of vellum measuring 5 3/8” x 7 3/4”.  Then using the floral border in the ‘Happiness Is’'…’ stamp set and Versamark Ink stamp at top and bottom edge of vellum.  Add white embossing powder and ‘cook’ with heat tool.
2. Next take the large butterfly stamp and stamp above bottom border with Versamark, add white powder and heat.  Repeat process for wording stamp.
3. Stamp a large butterfly and a small butterfly onto vellum with Versamark and once again using the white powder, heat.
4. Take the Distress Ink Markers (here MJ used Spun Sugar and Victorian Velvet) and colour all butterfly images from the reverse.  Leave to dry.
5. Taking the large and small butterfly images use an embossing tool gently from reverse to add the white shading.  Then cut these 2 images out.
6. Fold an A4 piece of Kraft card in half to form your card blank.  Using Crafters Companion Stick and Stay (Red Can) cover the reverse side of the stamped vellum piece and stick to front of card.
7. Shape the wings of the butterflies and then use 3D foam pads/glue gel to adhere to the front of the card.
8. If you wanted to you could colour behind the border too to add more colour. 
9. Decorate to suit.
