For my FB Live this week I am using the beautiful Spotlight On Nature stamp set from Stampin’ Up! The images have a delicate appearance and look gorgeous fully coloured and outline coloured. As a follow on from last week’s Back to Basics, I use simple stamping and colouring techniques.
The Spotlight On Nature stamp set is available as part of a bundle, including some gorgeous dies. However, I want to show how you can use just the stamp set to make beautiful cards. You really don’t need lots of products, equipment or space for card making!
The first card is monochromatic in Poppy Red, using patterned paper and white cardstock. This style looks great in all colours.
The next card uses tone on tone stamping for the background and is monochromatic in Berry Burst.
For the blue (Misty Moonlight) card I added an embossing folder but kept to the monochromatic style.
The anniversary card introduces another colour by using Stampin’ Write Markers directly onto the stamp. This technique creates all sorts of colourful images. Don’t forget to ‘huff’ onto the stamp to rejuvenate the ink!
Lastly, but actually the first card I made, uses Stazon Black ink for the outline. It is coloured using ink, Blender Pens and Water Painters.
