Cracked Up – Tutorial #326 and Blog Candy
How about smearing a little ink today. This tutorial is all about the technique of “Direct to Paper”. Direct to Paper, aka “DTP” is the art of smearing the ink pad directly onto the card stock. I use the short end of my ink pad throughout this piece and leave a bit of the Whisper White card stock showing through for sparkle.
Before I get into the tutorial though I want to announce the blog candy that I now have to give away. This is a special blog candy, a brand new Stampin’ Up! Level 2 Hostess set, Christmas Punch. Can you get excited about that? I can!
To enter to win this set, please leave a comment on this post telling me to enter you in the drawing. If you are getting this blog update via e-mail, please click HERE and then leave your comment at the bottom of the post. Please no e-mail enties.
I will select the winner using a random number generator on Tuesday, May 4, 2010. Until Tuesday I will be on the road teaching my brayer workshops to the fabulous ladies in Riverside, California.
Now let’s get started on that tutorial. . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Supplies:
| Stamps: Stampin’ Up! Trendy Trees |
| Paper: Stampin’ Up! Whisper White, Basic Black, Perfect Plum and Almost Amethyst |
| Ink: Stampin’ Up! Perfect Plum, Going Gray, Almost Amethyst, Really Rust and Basic Black |

Using the sort end of a Almost Amethyst ink pad, smeared the ink on a 4″ square piece of Whisper white card stock, leaving plenty of white showing.
Added Going Gray ink by using the short end of the ink pad and smearing it.
Stamped the trunks of the trees using Basic Black ink.
Stamped the leaves of the tree by loading the leaves stamp first with Going Gray ink and then tapping a bit of Really Rust on the bottom half of the leaves before stamping it.
Ripped a post it note and masked right at the bottom of the tree trunks. Took a Basic Black marker and traced the jagged edge of the mask, leaving a tiny unmarked area in order to form the crack in the next step.
Removed the mask and drew a crooked line down from the Basic Black line opening to the bottom of the card stock to form the crack.
Sponged a tiny bit of Going Gray in the rock area to tone it down a bit.
Added white gel pen highlights in the leaves of the trees.
Added Basic Black marker under the leaves of the tree to give them a bit more definition.
Decided to put a little more drama in the sky by adding a tiny bit of Perfect Plum ink by smearing it on the right and left sides of the sky area.
Added White Gel pen highlights to the left side of the tree trunks.
Cut a 5.25″ square piece of Almost Amethyst Card stock and sponged Perfect Plum ink on the edges.
Punched a Word Window from Basic Black card stock and cut one end off of the punch. Assembled my card front and added the punch.
Added purple rhinestone brads to the punch.
Here is the finish card measuring 5.5″ square.
May your weekend be over flowing with Joy!
Until my next post. . . . . . . ..
Hugs,
Michelle

Please enter me in the drawing. Why the crack in the earth? That is unusual. You never get boring. I wish I could come up with ideas like that. I draw a blank when it comes to designing. I need something to spark an idea.
Do you know how to make the tulips with the bird punch wings? I have seen in done but don’t know how to do it. I have that punch and it would be nice to be able to use it for another purpose besides the bird’s wing. The twig part of the punch was used for the flower’s stem. I was wondering if there was something about it in the demonstrator’s magazine.
Oh my god, your card is so gorgeous. I really wish, I lived over there sometimes, so I could try and be on one of your classes. I´m sure, it would be so great, but as I live in Denmark, that´ll be pretty unbelieable, but I would sure love to win this awesome stamp set here, that´s for sure.
Big hugs Maryann
What more can I ask for? Beautiful card, new technique, and the inspiration to actually try this and see if I can make something so lovely this way!
