This week's MIM theme is to combine more than 3 DIY pattern papers to build a card. So I used different stamp sets and different ink cubes to stamp each pattern.
BUT! It was not that easy when you combine those patterns onto one cardstock. So what I did here was to make strips of pattened paper and lined up. And, I think I like it!
Sorry the pictures today were from my iPad and quality is not good and dark... The first picture is better than second.
And thank you for stopping by my blog. Hope you have a great day.
Hi! Today I made a card for this week's MakeItMonday Challenge.
(日本語は下にあります↓↓↓)
Lizzie introduced in her video how to make fun cluster stamping without using die cut. It looked so much fun, I gave it a try right after I watched the video.
I traced the H and I alpha cuts (from Studio Calico's SB kit) with pencil and started stamping. I chose Bubble Talk stamp set for this card.
Color combo is taken from March release color recipe below. (I used Smokey Shadow instead of True Black).
Since stamps are slightly bigger to fit within the letters, I needed to mask along the pencil lines, but it wasn't a problem at all, because every line is streight! I kept stamping until I could fill all the blank areas. Erased the pencil lines and main part was done!
I couldn't stop fun stamping at this point, I even stamped around the edge of base cardstock. Adhered the front panel, added a few embellishments and my card was finished.
It was so much FUN!! Thanks to PapertreyInk for offering those fun challenges every week.
When I first saw this technique while PTI's Feb. release, I really liked it and wanted to imitate her card, so I bought the same stamp set "ENCLOSED:Flower". But today it is a day for a new challenge, I chose different stamp set to try with.
So here is my card.
I used my all the time favorite stamp set, SWEET LIFE.
I stamped flower image by two layers so I slightly could see the second layer to use as a guide. But most of the doodling was made quite free style. I tried to draw bold outlines.
For background, I added lots and lots of small dots using Heidi Swapp's mist.
背景はミストを使って細かくドットを描いています。
I really really like this technique. The flowers look very different from original 3 layered stamped image. Another usage of stamp set which I already have.
To be honest, I want make some more cards in other color combos.
