Hello and I’m so pleased that you have popped by to see today’s project. I always appreciate your interest and would love to hear from you – where do you live, what do you like, what would you like me to share or anthing other comment or question you may have.
No more Tranquil Thoughts today. I wanted to use the SAND & SEA SUITE again.
For this card I wanted to try a variation of a split negative stamping technique. Here is an example that I found online.
I wanted to see what a card would look like with more than two panels and using different colours. I chose Basic White, Crumb Cake, Petal Pink and Tuxedo Black Memento. (oops, this photo is a bit wonky!)
As you can see I stamped the image three times – thanks to my Stamparatus. Black on Basic White, Petal Pink on Petal Pink and Crumb Cake on Crumb Cake. I coloured the black on white image using a Crumb Cake Blends. Each layer was then cut so that they could be pieced together.
The fussy cut shell that sits over the top of the layered pieces was stamped in Crumb Cake and coloured using Petal Pink and Calypso Coral Belnds.
I applied the Clear Wink of Stella liberally to give this shell some bling.
The ‘Friends’ sentiment is so lovely. This is the card that I sent to Fran Brown, Lafayette, IN. Fran often pops in to watch my Facebook Live each week and I am grateful that she does.
It’s easy to forget all the dies that there are for cutting out sentiments. I know that I don’t use the ovals from the STITCHED SHAPES DIES as often as I could.
The final touch was to add some FROSTED EPOXY DROPLETS.
Make sure you let me know what you think.
Happy stamping.
