Happy Monday everyone! When I saw the CAS challenge on SCS today was to use 3 shades of blue and an option of birds I sort of had this idea in mind. I haven’t done any acrylic block stamping in a while and I thought I could do the 3 shades of blue then add this silhouette on top. I have to say…it actually turned out pretty much what I had in mind.
It did take me two tries to get the ‘background’ the way I wanted it but what I did was this…
- Make sure your acrylic block is completely clean
- Ink the entire block with Soft Sky
- Ink the bottom 2/3 of the block with Marina Mist
- Ink the bottom of the block with Night of Navy
- LIGHTLY MIST with water
- Stamp on cardstock.
I have to say…I was so happy with the way this turn out. Then I just made sure it dried good before using.
This is an extremely easy card…
- Whisper White – 4 1/4 x 11 folded
- Stamp greeting using StazOn Jet Black
- Whisper White – 3 x 3 1/4
- Stamp with acrylic block using method above
- Stamp birds on a branch using StazOn Jet Black
- Add using dimensionals
Yep…it took me longer to the blog post then it did to do card!
