Hey there, it’s Gaylynn. Thanks for stopping by. Today I am sharing a way to stamp in color and use colored pencils on kraft cardstock for the Unity blog. This provides a subtle look by combining the two techniques.
Stamping different ink colors with a touch of colored pencils works beautifully on kraft
Sentiment: Take care.
Helpful tips:
In summary, stamp in color using different ink colors for stamping onto kraft cardstock. Then, since this is one big stamp, tear paper into pieces to use as masking for the ink color sections or use mint tape to separate the inking. Next, stamp one masked section at a time. I used the Misti to reink in some areas. Also, be sure to remove the masking or tape before stamping. Repeat for all of the colors. Then, heat set the stamping and trim or die-cut the stamped panel. Next, trim or die-cut the stamped panel smaller than your card base. Finally, adhere it to the card base using flat double-sided tape or glue plus add a die-cut sentiment and adhesive pearls.
Here is a closer look:
Also, here is the process.
