I was recently asked to make a layered stamped card. Using a blended ink technique for the sentiment, I thought I would share my process here for how to blend the ink and then stamp it. I really like the subtle blend and it worked well as a background for my stamped sentiment. I am sure to use more ink blending in the future, how about you?
Materials:
- stamping block
- large flat stamp
- water spray bottle
- cotton swab
- ink pads (I used 5)
- card stock
Video Tutorial:
You don’t have to spritz with water but I think it helped with the ink blending. And the cotton swab technique is a lifesaver, I am so glad I stumbled upon that technique!
Finally, I cut out a square shape from my stamped image and used it on the card at the top of the post.
