I don't know where my brain was yesterday as I posted today's post as well as Saturday's I would blame Blogger scheduling however I know I will have done something wrong.
Therefore there is a bonus post today of a prototype card. This was my first play with my Cherry Blossom stamps so its not the neatest however it does show the principal of how to make a picture using the different elements from the Cherry Blossom elements stamp set.
I started by drawing a circle with a pencil on a square of coconut white foundation card. Next I took the smallest solid cherry blossom stamp and randomly stamped it around the circle using worn lipstick distress ink pad. I then stamped the larger solid cherry blossom stamp using Victorian velvet distress ink. Finally I added the outline stamps that match the blossoms. using first and second generation stamping around the circle.
If you look carefully you can see the circle i drew as I didn't rub this out so that you could see the principal!
Hopefully this will give you an idea of what else you can do with my stamp sets!
Enjoy...
Morning John, lovely card today, amazing what you can do with stamps, that is your fortay

Hi John, this is a really pretty card, I like the flower shape and they way you can just stamp with lots of colours. Enjoy your Sunday . X Ros
ReplyDeleteI love this sort of thing. As well as the main card front, if you die cut the shape it makes a great insert for inside. What I tend to do especially for Christmas cards.

Morning John, Don't worry, we all have 'those moments', I can blame senior moments hahaha.
ReplyDeleteI love this card, the technique on the stamping reminds me of the 'multi stamping' technique, it looks fabulous.
Lots of love from Patricia xx
Nice to get a bouns!
ReplyDeleteReally pretty card, if you hadn't mentioned the pencil line I wouldn't have noticed it.
You must be over worked....being constantly on the go...
Your too young to be having senior moments!
Hello John, 2 great Sunday cards, I loved the one that appeared early, but this is my favourite, because the stamping is quite abstract. Have a great day. Bx

Good morning John talk about confusion had to go back over the posts to find myself knowing the post I commented on yesterday did say Sunday but I hadn't seen the Hallo post....so, I am now back on track suffice to say this style of stamping is so relaxing as you can sit and do it watching the TV and you can never have mistakes! Hope you are having a day off today love from Jackie xx ☺

I must go back and look at the other post My iPod takes me straight to here This is a lovely technique I have tried something similar using the rubber/eraser end of a brand new pencil but couldn't do the outline stamping which really finishes it off Lovely colours - I've got these ones Woo hoo!

ReplyDeleteDid try and comment earlier but couldn't. Thought you had barred the afflicted lol!
Love doing these type of cards with another brand of teeny floral stamps so guess you will have to design some more now lol!

Fab card John (and a bonus too) - love how you make such a special card with very little equipment which is great and shows someone who is just starting to craft to see they can make something so lovely with just some card and couple of stamps and a few ink pads - brilliant xx enjoy the rest of the weekend xx GailT xx
