Hello and welcome to my stop on The Ton Stamps Summer 2016 blog hop! You should have arrived here from Ruby's blog. ;) Today I have two cards to share that I created with the new products.
For my first card I used the new Haute Stacks stamp set to create a colourful, girly card featuring the awesome stack of books with one of the layered flowers sitting on top.
To create my card, I stamped the books onto a piece of white cardstock and coloured them in with various colours of Copic markers. I added some clear glitter on some of them and then I cut them out with my scissors.
I also stamped one of the layering flowers using similar pink ink colours to the Copic shades that I used on the books and then I cut it out with scissors and adhered it to the top if the stack of books.
I completed the card by adhering the books and flower to a white cardstock panel that I had matted with a piece of silver sparkle cardstock and then I added the whole panel to a light pink card base. I also added some clear sequins onto the card front with silver stickles in the center.
For my second card, I used the new Always Cherry Blossoms stamp set to create a heat embossed design with Copic colouring.
I stamped the image with Tuxedo Black ink and then I coloured it in with Copic markers. Once I had it all coloured I stamped directly over the image with Versamark ink and heat embossed it with gold embossing powder.
You can see how I created the card in the video below:

ReplyDeleteHi Stephanie ~ I've never seen the technique of embossing after coloring, as you did in the Always Cherry Blossoms card, but I really like the look it gives. Very creative idea! I'll definitely be testing this out on some of my cards in the near future! Thanks so much for including the video on this one. The Haute Stacks card is lovely with the flower perched on top. Thanks so much for sharing.
