It's Tuesday and it's time for another Inspiration post over at STAMPlorations! As usual, we've got an awesome variety of projects to share. This is mine....
I decided to try the stamping over white pigment ink technique on black cardstock this time. So, I took my oak leaf stamp (Trendy Leaves set) stamped it first with white pigment ink then went over it with a variety of Distress ink colours. The colours aren't as vibrant over the white as the StazOn ink is but still very nice. I stamped my sentiment (Smile set) in versamark ink and embossed it in white. I've done this technique on kraft and now black cardstock but I think I want to test it out on other colours too. :-)

The colour of those leaves are subtle and work really well, good to try different mediums and different effects....subtle and not so vibrant works so well on this card x
ReplyDeleteThat is a beautiful creation...
ReplyDeletePretty - overstamping white pigment ink!
ReplyDeleteI really like this-perfect for a man as well! I am not quite understanding how you created the leaves. You stamped it in white ink and then, once dry you took a brush and, using the distress inks, painted the leaves??
ReplyDeleteHi Birgit. No I don't paint over the white stamped leaves. I use the same stamp and stamp over top the white image with the coloured ink. Make it slightly offset and the white looks like a highlight. Hope this helps. :-)
DeleteAwesome color on the dark base
