#DOswts428 Sketch Inspiration Card - featuring Botanical Layers

Hey Friends!  I originally made this card for a STARS Blog Hop that took place on 9 March 9th.  But my daughter had other plans for me Saturday and my post was not finished so here is my #DOswts428 Sketch Inspiration Hop card a few days late.  I used a double stamping technique for the my snake plant.  I stamped once with Lemon Lime Twist and then added color with Granny Apple Green Stampin' Write Marker directly to the stamp for the 2nd stamping.  It is best to use a stamping platform for this type of stamping.

    • Botanical Layers 
  • Paper 
    • Granny Apple Green card base - 11" x 4 1/4". score @ 5 1/2"

    DOStamper STARs Thursday Challenge #234: 2017-2018 In Colors

    Welcome to this weeks DOStamper Stars Thursday Color Challenge #234. This week we are having a "Product Spotlight" Challenge featuring the new 2017-2018 In Colors.  I love these new colors, especially the Tranquil Tide and Powder Pink.  I managed to get all 5 colors in cardstock and ink onto my card.  The Falling Flowers stamps and May Flowers Framelits are the perfect set for these colors, I love them all together in this card.  Hope you like it as well!!

     
    Card Measurements:
     Tranquil Tide  base 5 1/2 x 4 1/4
    Irresistibly Floral (retired) DSP layer 4 x 2 3/4
    Powder Pink 3 x 3
    Berry Burst 3 x 3
    Lemon Lime Twist 4 x 4
    Fresh Fig 2x2
    Sentiment strip Whisper White 1 x 5
     
     
     


     

    TIP:  Use a piece of Washi tape to hold the framelit in place if your do not have the magnet base plate for your Big Shot.  That is what I do.  Works great and does not tear up my cardstock. 


    Thanks for stopping by my blog, Tea and Stamps, today. I hope you enjoyed viewing my project featuring the new 2017-2018 In-Colors.  Which one is your new favorite?

    DOStamper STARs Thursday Challenge #232: Flourish Thinlets Color Wash

    Welcome to this weeks DOStamper Stars Thursday Color Challenge #232. This week we are having a "Color My World" Challenge highlighting Melon Mambo, Old Olive and Crushed Curry. I used the three ink colors to create a color wash on my card layer and added die cut flowers using the Flourish Thinlits in coordinating cardstock colors. I think it is a lovely card.


    Card Measurements: 
     
    Basic Black base 5 1/2 x 4 1/4
    Shimmery White layer 5 1/4 x 4
    Vellum strip 1 x 4
    Basic Black sentiment strip 5/8 x 3 1/2
     




     

    Tip: Pinterest has several video examples of the Color Wash technique, I suggest you go there and find the technique that works best for you.  I took ink directly from ink pad and onto the paper with my aqua painter, making sure my aqua painter was not overly wet.  Shimmery White or Watercolor paper works best for this technique. Once I had the right amount of ink on the paper I let it dry for a bit and then flattened under a heavy book.

    Thanks for stopping by my blog, Tea and Stamps, today. I hope you enjoyed viewing my project featuring Flourish Thinlets die with a color wash background.  If you would like learn more about the technique I used leave me a comment and you can also "Follow by Email"  or  become one of my "Followers" to keep up with my latest creations.
