Stampin’ Up! Blended Bloom!
Hey there! My newsletter is going out later today with new Weekly Deals and Christmas in July info, including a tutorial/tip to simplify using the Flower Fair Framelit and Flower Patch stamps. If you don't receive my newsletters, sign up on my sidebar NOW!
Today's Brenda Keenan inspiration uses the Blended Bloom single stamp, which was designed with Blendability alcohol markers in mind. When it took longer than anticipated for Blendabilities to become available, we had to find alternate techniques to use with this stamp. The Blendabilities ARE available to order now, but I love this technique using Sponge Daubers:
I heat-embossed with white powder on Shimmery White cardstock first. Using a sponge dauber, Daffodil Delight ink is applied with a soft, circular motion to the bloom's center first, then Coastal Cabana is applied around the Daffodil Delight, allowing the inks to overlap a bit. Finish with Island Indigo around the outer edges, overlapping the Coastal Cabana. Cut out with Paper Snips before mounting on the Large Polka Dot-embossed layer. Flower Frenzy Bigz L leaves tuck behind the blooms. Greeting is from A Dozen Thoughts.
Inside the same inks plus Old Olive stamp images from Sassy Salutations and Garden Party.
That's all for now. Come back tomorrow for another color combo with this set!
