Hi my friends:
I hope you are enjoying the Summer...
Here it is a trio of cards using the same set of stamps from Memory Box: The "Bumble Bee Daydreams stamp set and coordinating Die"
For this 1st card:
I used a die for the honeycomb background, cover it with vellum and attach the vellum to the front panel with "
washi tape".
I used the "bees" from the stamp set...
This second card was colored using "
Copic" markers...
and I used the flowers, leaves and tiny bees from the stamp set
when die cutting small pieces like these ones follow the following steps showed in the photos
- die cut the shapes (do not separate the dies from each other) to make a "template"
- place "template" over your acrylic block or stamp "positioner"
- place in each hole the corresponding clear stamp
- remove template
- ink all the images with black ink
- stamp a piece of paper
- place die on top of stamped image
- take it to your die cutting machine and die cut shapes (shown right)
For this last card, the background on this card was made using the "
resist" technique with "Archival inks"
close up technique:
stamp with "archival ink/orange" on glossy paper the honeycomb image, then apply distress inks all over the panel, I used vintage and walnut distress inks...the archival will resist and the honeycomgb will not be covered...
Thanks for the visit...
Until next time
