This week once again I had the challenge of creating a card from a sketch that is not mine. Sketch #20 is designed by Anna-Carin. After checking out my creation using this sketch please hop on over to the Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge to see what our design team has created using this sketch.
I couldn't decide what I wanted to create, and got playing around with Paisley Perfect(C1556). I also decided that I wanted to make a puddle pad. Now if you are asking what is a puddle pad, and how do I make one I've posted this video with Kristine.
So here is my card design. After making my puddle pad with the following re-inkers: Blush, Buttercup, Crystal Blue and Sweet Leaf, I laid out the stamps randomly on my 4x5 block to make the the pattern seen above. Then inked up my stamps. I then cut into squares, and used my corner rounder to round my edges. Then I balled up my baby wipes and dabbed a sheet of White Daisy CS to make my own coloured paper. I was an inky mess, but it was a ton of fun. I hope you leave this post wanting to make your very own puddle pad and get inky.
To purchase any of the supplies used above you can shop on my website or by contacting me to place an order.
Beautiful stamping job Michelle! Love all the pretty colors!
ReplyDeleteTHIS is such a cool technique! I watched the video and it looks so darn easy!! I guess I need to get me some baby wipes! ;-) Love the background paper as well! TFS!
