The Evening Evergreen cardstock layer was embossed with the Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder,  To bring our the embossed texture I used a blending brush to and Whisper White Craft ink. The white ink softens the paper and blends nicely with the DSP.

          Rubber Band Stamping Technique, 21-23 In Colors and the Gingko Branch Bundle

          Hey Crafty Friends!  After spending some time with family and taking a much needed trip to the Gulf Coast I am back to posting some exciting creations.  Today's card features the lovely Ginko Branch Bundle, the 2021-2023 In Colors and some rubber bands.  

          Card Details
          • Gingko Branch Bundle #160469
            • Gingko Branch Stamps #160463
            • Gingko Branch Dies #160468
          • Paper 
            • Evening Evergreen card base - 11" x 4 1/4", score & fold at 5 1/2"
            • Polished Pink layer  - 4 3/4" x 3 1/2"
            • Pale Papaya layer  - 4 3/4" x 3 1/2"
            • Soft Succulent layer - 4 1/2" x 3 1/4"
            • Fresh Freesia scrap for sentiment label 
            • Basic White cardstock - 5 1/4" x 4" for die cut from Gingko Branch Dies 
          • Ink Pads
            • Polished Pink
            • Fresh Freesia
            • Pale Papaya
            • Evening Evergreen
          • Other Stuff
            • Blending Brushes, Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine, Liquid Glue, Stampin' Dimensionals



          The Rubber Band Stamping Technique uses rubber bands wrapped around a block to stamp pattern onto card stock.  First, I blended  Fresh Freesia, Pale Papaya and Polished Pink ink onto white cardstock.  After wrapping several rubber bands around my "E" block I dipped it Evening Evergreen ink and stamped away.  I repeated the inking & stamping until I was happy with the coverage.  



           


          Then I die cut the largest image from the Gingko Dies and attached the die cut to the card base with glue.  This is a fun way to create a background or add interest to a die cut layer. You can even make plaid patterns with rubber bands.
