Something Saturday - DSP & Blends

Image
 Hi There Creators Today I thought I'd show off an idea that Claire our Stampin' Up! Demonstrator Development Manager showed us in a workshop the other day, I took it a bit further in one of my cards, let me know which card is your favourite! If you'd like to see all the goodies I used on these cards click here:  DSP & Blends Turtles Cards Here are the cards I ended up creating The first 2 I've just used the blends to go round each of the images on the designer paper, I really love the way the images get highlighted from it, almost a "stained glass effect" This first card I also used the blend on the white card base under the Designer Paper to give a border This second card I used the Blend around the edge of the Designer paper to draw a line  (I did use a ruler to do this!) again to create a border. Then this last one I've gone round the edges again with the darker Pool Party blend, but then blended in the lighter one in all the gaps. I actually did g...

Something Saturday - Bleach or White?

 Hi There Creators

Before I forget, there is an AMAZING special on this month, not only are the new catalogue (and new Online Products) live, but there is a joining special, pick out $303 of goodies but only pay $169!!  Ask me if you're interested and want to know more, or if you know you want to take the plunge, click here: Join Heather's Team.

Today I thought I'd play around with a spot of bleach stamping, then decided to throw white into the mix too, it's interesting what a difference it makes, I like both!  Bleach is fascinating when it reacts with different cardstocks (interestingly didn't work on our black cardstock at all!)  I used Pecan Pie card.

To create these cards I also needed: 

Stazon Black Ink Pad   

white Craft Ink 

You are Remarkable Stamp set  

And bleach (in my case domestos 🤣)  Oh and a pointy paintbrush

First up you stamp using Stazon (because it stays on! - in particular with bleach and waterbased components) it wouldn't work with alcohol based components, just so you know!

Then you paint either the white craft ink on, or the bleach on

once it dries you then add some colour, and voila......

These 2 both got coloured in with Gorgeous Grape ink for the flower, the bleach changes the colour 😃

And these 2 got the Petunia Pop colour (which is the cardstock underneath, so you can compare the colour😉)

To make the cards up I also used some Versamark ink  to create the pretty background, I love the way that as a "watermark" ink it just creates this slightly darker colour on the coloured cardstock (one colour fits all as it were! 😃)
