A Stamp Above Creative Group - Favorite Technique
A Stamp Above is a member's only group. It's a fun place to acknowledge everyone's achievements as well as participate in various challenges each month and get inspired by all the creations!
Do you have a favorite technique?
Is this something that you keep using on most of your projects?
Or is it a new favorite technique that you've just discovered?
I recently discovered "Embossing on Window Sheets" and this is such a very cool and unique technique. I've already used it on several projects and it's such a fun way to amp up your creations.
For my "Here For You Now" card, I used the Stampin' Up! Color & Contour Stamp Set, Scalloped Contours Dies, Textured Floral Dies and Fresh as a Daisy DSP along with the 2023-25 In Color Luster Specialty Paper.
I used three techniques on this card - Watercolor Stamping, Rocking Technique & Embossing Window Sheets.
I began with my card base using Copper Clay cardstock followed by a layer of DSP and the embossed window sheet. These two layers were adhered onto the card base with dimensionals.
Using an image from the Colors & Contour Stamp Set, I stamped the image randomly onto a Window Sheet using Versamark ink and heat set with White Embossing Powder.
Next, I turned it over so the smooth side was facing up and added tiny dots of liquid adhesive onto the back of the embossed areas so it would adhere onto the DSP.
The sentiment was stamped using Boho Blu ink, trimmed and flagged on the right and adhered with dimensionals.
The flower image was stamped onto Watercolor Paper using the "rocking technique." After stamping the image using Boho Blue ink, I "rocked" the stamp onto the Copper Clay ink only on the edges of the stamp. I misted with water (very little) and stamped the image and die cut.
The spray of leaves behind the flower was die cut using the Wild Wheat In Color Luster Specialty Paper.
The embellishments are 2023-25 In Color Dots.
Behind the flower image, the DSP was die cut using the Scalloped Contour Dies and adhered onto the window sheet.
Boho Blue Textured Ribbon was wrapped around the layers and cut another piece of ribbon to wrap around and tie in a knot.
DSP was also added on the envelope flap.
Inside my card is a layer of DSP and Basic White Cardstock. I did the same "rocking technique" for this flower, but I didn't mist with water.
The sentiment was stamped using Boho Blue ink.
Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today.
