Hi, I hope you had a great Christmas filled with family and good times! I spend a little time with some new items and have a Sneak Peak to show you today.
This is the Perfectly Detailed Background stamp that you will see in the January-April 2023 Mini Catalogue. If you are a customer of mine, you should be receiving your copy in the mail very soon.
I played around with the Joseph’s Coat Technique with this and used the 2021-2023 InColors to highlight all of the detail in this beautiful stamp.
The Joseph’s Coat Technique involves adding colour with Blending Brushed to a piece of Basic White cardstock. Then, stamping the image with Clear Emboss Powder and heat setting it. Then wait a few minutes for the embossed image to cool and add the final colour all over the top. You can use Blending Brushes for this, but I just used the ink pad itself. Then, take a wet wipe and wipe off the top colour to reveal the other colours on the image beneath.
As you can see, the colours I used are softer but this technique looks great with brighter colours as well.
The I used another new set, Something Fancy Bundle for the greeting. It’s a terrific greeting to use if you’re a few days late in getting the card in the mail.
And, there you have it – these two sets will be available for you to purchase on January 5th!
Take care and keep on stamping!
