T is for Tissue Paper

Hi and welcome to my blog! I am showing another card for my alphabet series. Today the letter is T. I used tissue paper on my card. I used the smoosh technique to add colors to the tissue paper. You need to do this carefully so that the paper does not tear. After it dried I stamped on the paper using black ink. Lastly I adhered the tissue paper to card stock so that it would be sturdier. 

Stamps:  Swirls - Inkadinkado

Distress Inks:  Ranger

Bio.

I have been drawing since a child and studied graphics at College many years ago, I now work as a Medical photographer part time but my love was always drawing. I started cardmaking about 4yrs ago when I bought my daughter a cardmaking kit which we did together, but I’m afraid I got the bug! My daughter preferred scrapbooking. I then started looking online at other blogs and this then became my passion and I loved sharing my cards with like minded people.

I love stamping and loved finding images, but sometimes I could not find what I wanted so I started to draw myself. This then has become my second addiction and I have never looked back, I love thinking of new images, and its just fabulous to see others take them and make them into beautiful works of art. Long may it continue

I pulled out a spooky background from my stash where I had smooshed colors around on glossy card stock. I thought it would look good with this little witch mouse for a Halloween card.

S is for Soot Stamping

I am back again with another card for my alphabet series and the letter is S. I used a technique called soot stamping on this card. I found that you have to be very careful because you are using an open flame to do this! First I sponged some colors on a piece of white card stock. Next I moved the card around over top of a candle flame. You begin to get some black areas over the sponged card, but you will also see some of the colors coming through. I took a butterfly stamp, and without using any ink, I randomly stamped over the whole card, wiping off the soot that got on the stamp between each time I stamped. The stamp was lifting off the soot and leaving the print of the butterfly. This makes a lovely ghost effect. Afterwards the card will need to be sealed with some kind of spray so that the soot does not not come off. I just used hairspray.

Stamp:  Butterfly - Rubber Stampede

Distress Inks:  Ranger

Dies:  Wildflowers #2 - Sizzix
