Card making How to Papercraft Papercrafter Stamping Techniques Card Making
Create statement sentiments with our simple stamping tutorial!
There are many ways to pack your cards with vibrancy and create statement backgrounds. For repeat stamping, I would thoroughly recommend a stamping platform to ensure precision and even lines every time. The clear stamp will cling to the lid and stay in the same position for multiple applications.
YOU WILL NEED:
Stamps: Mama Elephant Iconic Letters
Ink pads, Distress Oxide, Memento Inks, clear embossing
Paint, watercolour
Enamel dots
METHOD:
1 Cut white card to 10cm x 14cm. Using a stamp platform, press ‘Good luck’ in purple ink along the top line. The second ‘O’ will need to be stamped separately later on.
2 Offset the card in the stamp press, then use green ink to stamp the sentiment again. Repeat this step in different colour inks. Add in the missing ‘O’s where required, then apply alphabet shadows in black ink.
3 Mask off sections of an 11cm x 15cm white blank and use distress inks to create stripes, matching the colour order of the sentiments. Fix the stamped panel centrally onto the greeting. Add enamel dots to complete.
