Technique Tuesday Blog Hop with Crafty Collaborations

Hello Stamping Friends,

Welcome to another great blog hop: Technique Tuesday with Crafty Collaborations. This round we are sharing mini cards with you. So fun to make.


Although my cards have a "Happy Valentine's Day" greeting on them, you can easily switch the greeting out for another one for any occasion at all. I just so happened to use these cards for my class this year because we have a bubble gum machine theme.


I used Stampin' Blends to color each little gumball and the machine. I may have had blurred vision after looking at all of those tiny circles, but it was so worth it in the end.


They are 3"x3" size so from one sheet of 12"x 12" cardstock you can get 8 of these mini card bases which is awesome. They may be small, but they are quite impactful to any recipient.

Technique Tuesday Blog Hop

Hello Stamping Friends,
 
Glad you are here for today's blog hop: Technique Tuesday. This blog hop technique is focusing on inks. There are so many things you can do with ink so you better make some time to try the techniques you are going to be seeing throughout the blog hop. 


I decided to used reinkers for the main focus of my technique. It's the baby wipe techniqe. I will show you below what I did for the background on this card. I wanted to use the Daisy Garden stamp, but I didn't want to color in the flowers by hand.


Another fun thing I tried was using only half of the large stamp on my card, so I stamped it only on the left side of the card. Gives you a lot more options when using those large background type stamps. Honestly, it's the first time I've ever done that. I always think I need to use the entire thing. Needless to say, I will be doing that more often. I love how it looks.


This is the baby wipe with all the reinkers on it. I used Mossy Meadow and Crushed Curry to make the background "ink pad."  It is baby wipes stacked about 5 high and then drop the ink on the pad in any pattern you'd like.  Then just take your stamp to the pad like you would any regular stamp pad to ink it.


Just a little close up of the greeting for you to see. I used the small daisy punch to bring the daisy theme all together. Daisies were my mom's favorite flower, so I often want to create with them to keep her spirit alive. Her and my dad were married in July and even had daisies in their wedding. So I thought it's the right time of year to make this card.
