Stamping Dreams Blog Hop - Throwback Thursday - Ink Swiping!!!

Hey Crafty Friends!!  I am so excited about this Throwback Thursday blog hop, where the task is to recreate an old project.  So I reached back to July 10, 2017 and found a favorite that I wanted to remake.  The technique is called, Ink Swiping, and I first learned about it on a blog post by Kim Jolley - a wonderful artist.  This technique is not for everyone, but had fun playing with it and I suggest you give it a try.  


Card Details
  • Paper 
    • Evening Evergreen card base - 11" x 4 1/4", score and fold at 5 1/2'
    • Soft Succulent cardstock layer - 4" x 5 1/4",
    • Basic White cardstock layer - 3 1/2" x 4 3/4' 
    • Distressed Gold Specialty Paper - 1 1/2" x 3 1/2"
    • Texture Chic Specialty Designer series Paper - 1 1/4" x 3 1/2"
  • Ink 
    • Petal Pink, Soft Succulent and Mango Melody Re-Inkers
    • Evening Evergreen Classic Stampin' Pad




Original card posted July 10, 2017


Here is my stepped up version. 
  • Used blender brush to add Petal Pink ink around the edges of white cardstock blending to center to tone down the bright white. 
  • Splattered ink with Petal Pink, Mango Melody and Soft Succulent Stampin' Write Markers. 
  • For leaves, I created a second ink swiping keeping swipes close together, then blended on some Petal Pink ink to tone down white.  Die cut with Chic Dies leaf die. 
  • Stamped off Petal Pink ink splatter stamped on top of sentiment.
