Wednesday Stamper challenge this week is to make something 2×4 inches.
It is a fun size, not too big, not too small. Remember to use at least one rubber stamp. Click the link above to go to the site and see the challenge and all the other entries. I used SIX stamps on this little 2×4….very fun to do something different! Then I get it done and think, why in the world did I use such a bold red?! Every once in awhile I do that! A soft color might have been really nice…oh well!
Golden Matte Gel Medium Transfer
Wednesday Stamper this week is asking, how do you like to do transfers? I have tried a few ways with Golden brand, matte gel medium and pretty happy w/the results each time. Since I had company this past weekend, I am posting an ATC I have made. This is a version of the transfer technique in the book, Artist Trading Card Workshop.
The image that transferred is going to have a lot of paper fibers on top of it…so VERY CAREFULLY, SOFTLY, GENTLY rub the fibers off w/your fingers….if it dries on you…you can try spritzing from very far back…barely misting to moisten it again…if you spritz too much, you’ll remove too much and have a mess. Be prepared to try and try again and more than likely you will fill up your trash can BUT, you will get some really nice transfers too! Every one will be different! Thanks for coming by my blog and looking!
Wednesday Stamper Challenge this week is to “play” with the color Green. So, I played w/green, stamps and punches! Stampendous, Hero Arts and Technique Tuesday stamps. Martha Stewart fence and butterfly punches, the leaves in the fence are from an old big flower punch set by Family Treasures, the kind that came in the wooden box w/the acrylic lid. The paper is from the Basic Grey O Baby set and the ink is Clearsnap Vivid Olive dye ink. The gold adhesive rhinestones are from Hero Arts.
Fresh…that’s what I think of green today! lol
using hearts in a different way….maybe this card works?!
Last year, I saw this technique somewhere…I used one of the small flower embossing folders on the edge of the heart and then a little bit of a larger A2 size embossing folder for the words on the heart.
I am just loving this idea! Found today’s Wednesday Stamper challenge is, Kiss Kiss. Decided I better take up the challenge with my kissing couple ATC!
