Guest Designing at IBS

Hi Stampers! 

Thrilled to be here as Guest Designer for the month of June, at Inspired by Stamping.

Thank you Joanna, for this awesome opportunity to showcase my talent in your blog using your Gorgeous Stamps. Absolutely enjoyed using those beautiful stampsets.

Am here today to share two cards using Gorgeous floral stamp sets from IBS store.

First card:

Its a simple CAS card, which uses the focal element as cherry blossom cluster, from the Stampset Cherry Blossoms.

• Took Neenah solar white cardstock in the size 4x5.25".
• Stamped the cherry blossom using Alcohol marker friendly ink - Memento Tuxedo Black ink here.

• Colored the image with Chameleon markers carefully inside the periphery of the images.
• Then the whole image, is highlighted using blue shade of chameleon marker over the outer periphery of whole image so as to pop the image.
• Finally Fabercastell Polychromos colored pencils are used to bring out shades and shadows to the images.
• Sentiment is stamped from the same stampset using Memento tuxedo black ink.
• Few clear dew droplets were added as accents.
• Then the focal panel is added to the standard A2 sized black card base.

Second card:

For this card, i made use of Gorgeous Magnolia Stampset, giving it a bit of Mixed media touch.

• Took  12x12cm top fold kraft cardbase.
• Then took a white focal panel which is bit lesser in size, is distressed around the edges.
• Bit of stenciling done using TCW- Tile using Prima Light base tinted with Hickery Smoke Distress ink.
• Colored ornated chipboard using Black soot distress ink
• Used No line coloring technique for the Magnolia images using Fabercastell polychromes pencils.
• Fussy cut it and kept aside.
• Added the ornated chipboard onto the focal panel with fussy cut image on top and white doily as base.
• Spanish moss, Prima artstone, tinted cheese cloth (Peeled paint distress ink) added along with the colored image, which is popped using Scotch foam adhesive.
• Sentiment is stamped on vellum using Archival ink and added to the focal panel.
• The focal panel is then mounted onto the kraft cardbase using foam adhesives.
• Few enamel dots are added to finish off the card.

Hope you all enjoyed today's projects. I can't wait for you to see my second post.

Thanks much for stopping by!

Love,

Sathya
