Hello and Welcome.

Here is a very simple card using this great stamp from Technique Junkies.

I just spent a few day at the beach so this card makes me smile with the good memories I have.

Here's how I created my card.

I began by masking my white card front with some Post-It Tape.

I then placed the paper inside my Misti, stamped the image and clear heat embossed it so it would resist the ink I was about to put over it and still shine through.

Next, I took a piece of clear acetate, rubbed some Distress Oxide inks onto it, sprayed with water and pressed the ink over my image. 

I have a pictorial about how to do it here:

When the ink was dry, I removed the tape and simply mounted it over a piece of blue cardstock to match the blue background.

I think this would make a great card for a guy.

Thanks so much for coming by and taking a look.

Good Morning.

Sadly, I needed another sympathy card.  Not an easy card to make for anyone.

I wanted to keep it very simple and thought that this image from Technique Junkies would be fitting.

I began with a piece of white cardstock and masked the edges using some Post-It Tape. 

A few of you have asked where I get the tape.  I just picked it up at Staples but I think you may also be able to get it at Walmart as well where you would find the Post-It Notes.

I then place my paper into my Misti and stamped the image using black Archival ink.

Next, using my Distress Oxides and a sheet of acetate, I applied the inks, layering the colors.

To see how I use the Acetate Inking Technique go here.

When I was happy with the inking, I let it dry completely and simply mounted it onto a white card base.

For any of you that are interested, I was published in the May addition of 

Craft Stamper Magazine.

Thanks so much for coming by and taking a look.
