On Friday 20 April, I held a class with the Beautiful Day stamp set & Versamark ink. We made four cards each in the class, each using a different technique with Versamark & then I also made a bunch of samples showing all the different colouring techniques with the different products we have available from Stampin' Up!
We are so lucky to have such beautiful & versatile products! I've used all the different colouring tools as well as the different cardstocks. So get ready for a bunch of butterfly cards! I may have been a bit biased towards using the butterfly for my samples haha!
Today I'm showing you the first card we made in the class, using Versamark for tone on tone background stamping. The cardbase is Tempting Turquoise & it's one of the retiring colours from the revamp. I never really played with it much as it's quite bright, but now I have, I really love it! Isn't that always the way? Make sure you stock up on the colours you love before they're all retired. You can see the list of retiring colours on my previous blog post.
We have used Versamark to stamp the little flowers in a diagonal pattern across the front of the card, tied Silver Bakers Twine around three times & tied in a small bow. Added a piece of Silver Glimmer Paper & a little nest of Silver Metallic Thread. Used Dimensionals to attach the little flower cut out from the Sweet Soiree Embellishment Kit & then stamped the sentiment in Basic Black & added some Rhinestones.
We've stamped the inside & the envelope to match, in Tempting Turquoise and Basic Black. It would be really easy to up step this card by adding an additional layer to the front, rather than stamping directly onto the card base.
