This is the card I designed for SSINK; we are creating with our favorite In-Color today.
I chose: Cucumber Crush.
It's my favorite In-Color right now. It's is so fun to use with Real Red for Christmas creations! Aren't they so festive together!
Like this fun card, I say fun because this card involves K-I-S-S-I-N-G!
To KISS with your stamps first you must apply ink!
This is how I made my present with the trees on it;
1.Ink up the solid square with Cucumber Crush ink.
2.Stamp it off twice on scratch paper.
3.Ink up the tree background image with Cucumber Crush ink.
4.Stamp the inked up square onto the tree image. The square stamp will pick up the tree pattern.
5.Stamp the square on to Whisper White card stock.
I repeated these steps with the stripped present and Real Red ink, as well as the ornament. The polka dots on the ornament are from a retired Paper Pumpkin stamp set.
Can you see the glittery bows? Did you know you can emboss with Stampin' Up!'s classic ink pads! If you work quickly, i.e. have all the necessary items ready you can easily embossed with the die based ink pads. I just stamped the bow image on Whisper White Card stock, dipped the image into Iridescent Ice embossing powder and embossed it with the Heat Tool. With this technique you can emboss in 50 different colors!
