Today's Craft with Me challenge (#CWMe) is to use a splatter stamp. How you use it is completely up to you; most commonly I have seen splatter used to create visual interest to a background layer for a card.
So that's what I am going to share with you today - a Touches of Texture card using the splatter stamp as the background. And below the card photos I have a complete tutorial for you!
Here's what I used - you can click on any of the photos to place an order at my online store:
Supplies:
- Stamp Set: Touches of Texture (143251)
- Inks: Basic Black (140931), Calypso Coral (126983)
- Cardstock: Calypso Coral (122925), Very Vanilla (101650)
- Other: Lace Doilies (142793), Linen Thread (104199), Subtles Markers (131263), Metallic Enamal Shapes (141678), Layering Circles Framelits (141706), Fine-Tip Glue Pen (138309) Fast Fuse Adhesive (129026), Dimensionals (104430)
Measurements:
- Card Base Calypso Coral: 5 ½” x 8 ½” score at 4 ¼”, plus scrap for circle- approx. 2 ½” x 2 ½”
- Very Vanilla mat: 5” x 3 ¾”, plus scrap for flowers: 4” x 2 ¼”
Instructions:
- Stamp splatter image in Calypso Coral on larger vanilla cardstock twice without reinking your stamp.
- Die cut a circle using the Calypso Coral scrap and the 2 ¼” circle framelit.
- Adhere the circle to the back of the doily with the fine tip glue pen. Then add dimensionals to the back of the cardstock and doily layer and add onto the vanilla cardstock mat.
- Wrap linen thread around that vanilla piece two times, near the bottom, and tie a bow.
- Add the vanilla layer with doily and twine to the card front using fast fuse.
- Stamp the flower image in Basic Black ink on the Vanilla cardstock scrap. Color the image with markers. I used Blushing Bride, Wild Wasabi, and Calypso Coral for the center of the flowers. Hand cut the image using paper snips and attach to the card front with dimensionals.
