I’ve gone to town (not really) this week for my Simple Stamping Saturdays No.10 card by adding colour. When stamping two of the vases from the Vibrant Vases stamp set I used Bermuda Bay and Poppy Parade ink.
The notecard is simple to make because the Vibrant Vases stamp set is a clear photopolymer one. This makes the layering of the stamped images very easy. The basic instructions for the notecard are as follows:
- Stamp shelf in Memento Tuxedo Black onto the front of the notecard.
- Then, stamp the outline images of the two vases in Bermuda Bay and Poppy Parade.
- Thirdly, stamp the solid images of the two vases in the same colour but stamp off onto scrap paper first. This will ensure that the colour is a lighter shade. This is a technique known as Stamping Off.
- Lastly, stamp the sentiment in Memento Tuxedo Black under the shelf image.
I also stamped an image on the inside of the notecard, just to finish it off. More often or not I will also stamp the same image on the envelope too.
The Vibrant Vases stamp set can be found on page 23 of the Spring/Summer Catalogue. This simple stamping project will also work with the Varied Vases stamp set found on page 45 of the Annual Catalogue.
Don’t forget, Simple Stamping is a great way to get into the craft of stamping. There is no need to invest in a huge amount of supplies to start. And, of course things such as the stamp set, ink, and clear blocks can be used time and time again.
My supply list for the notecard is below. Simply click on the images to be taken to my Online Store and add the items you want to your basket. Orders over £45 (excl. P&P) placed on or before 31 March will qualify for a free item (see details below).
