Natures Silhouettes – Tutorial

This card was created for SplitCoastStampers.com Color challenge today, CC170 in which we were challenged to use Regal Rose, Real Red and So Saffron.  Hmmmm, that’s a hard combination.  But I will give it a try.

The stamp used in today’s tutorial is by Innovative Stamp Creations from the Natures Silhouettes sheet.  Here is a link to their online store:  https://www.innovativestampcreations.com/ischomepage.html

Let’s get going on the tutorial.  🙂

Supplies:

Stamped flower silhouette stamp on Whisper White card stock by first loading the stamp with Versamark and then So Saffron ink before stamping.

Note:  this stamp is an unmounted stamp, but I don’t own a large enough acrylic mount for it so I stuck it to the back of a large mounted stamp I have temporarily.

Heat embossed using fine detail clear embossing powder and a heat gun.

Punched from the sticky part of a post it note a 1 3/8 circle to use a mask for the moon.

Brayered on Regal Rose ink in the sky area, leaving some white card stock showing towards the bottom.

Brayered Real Red ink at the top of the card stock.

Used my Coluzzle to cut a curve in the right side of the card stock.

Colored the centers of a few of the flowers with a black marker.

Stamp the silhouette stamp with Regal Rose ink.

Wiped the ink from the embossed images with an old rag.

Used a Prismacolor Silver Paint marker to edge the card stock. 

Sponged Real Red ink on a Regal Rose piece of card stock for one of the layers.

Assembled card front and used my piercing tools to do the piercing at the bottom, top and right side of the card front.

Here is the completed card measuring 5.25″ x 5.25″.

Hope your day if filled with pink flowers and sunsets.

Until my next post. . . . . . . .
