This is rock and roll technique using groovy guava and pomegranite, old olive and river rock.
The set is Brocade Basics and Linen Background.
One of a Kind and Berry Bliss paper made for a yummy card. Purely Pomegramite, Close to Cocoa, and Chocolate Chip inks sponged and blended with the Blurred Vision technique. This card was cased off SCS. Don't you love the new Pomegranite satin ribbon!
A Beautiful Thing set showcases the two step technique well. Using a Stamp-a-ma-jig is a must. It's Beautiful wheel is now my favourite wheel. The colours I have used are Blue Bayou, Groovy Guava, and Soft Sky.
The Garden Whimsey set stamped using the Wet Paper Water-colouring technique gave a soft effect to this card. The snail and ladybug are clear embossed and diamond dazzle powder applied. The mat pack and white gel pen give a great faux stiched look.
Brayered backgrounds was fun. I got to experiment with different colours in a way I havn't before. The colours I used were, Wild Wasabi, Summer Sun, Apricot Appeal, Groovy Guava, and Ruby Red. The Sanded, Lovely as a Tree and Sincere Salutations sets and masking the sun gave a great effect.
Crayon Resist and colouring with finger daubers on gloss card gives a vibrant effect to your colours. I used the Scribble This set, with Appricot Appeal and Perfect Plum. The Scribble wheel coloured with the Stampin' Pastels helped finish off this card.
In the Spotlight hostess set and the 5-Petal Flower punch makes a great quick flower. the Stem Sayings and Photo corner punch were also used to make this quick card. I used Wild Wasabi, Taken with Teal, and So Safron.
I just had to have this Dahlia flower out of Fabulous Flowers. Seeing what everyone did with them on SCS was inspiring. The blackboard or Black majic technique uses white craft ink on black cardstock and chalks or pencils to colour. Then you just highlight with a white gel pen. I also used Short and Sweet and Leaf Prints wheel.
This is one from a while ago when I tried crayon direct to stamp, spritzed and stamped. It gives a great mottled look. The Bodacious and Paisley sets were used. Certainly Celery,Lavender Lace, Almost Amethyst crayons, and Perfect Plum stamped on Lavender for the background.
