Stampin’ Up! Artistically Inked Gilded Alcohol Background!

Stampin’ Up! Artistically Inked Gilded Alcohol Background!

Hey there! I'm back today with another alcohol ink blended background, but this time I added gilded leafing to the raised edges of the vellum! Gorgeous!

Stampin_up_artistically_inked_pink_gilded_carolpaynestamps1

I cut the bloom from a piece of Gold Metallic paper, then added Gilded Gems for more sparkle. I also used Gold 1/4" Shimmer Ribbon.

Stampin_up_artistically_inked_pink_gilded_carolpaynestamps2

Inside I stamped a sentiment from Peaceful Moments. I inked the bloom first with Fresh Freesia and added Polished Pink with a Sponge Dauber before stamping on the lower corner and on the envelope.
Stampin_up_artistically_inked_pink_gilded_carolpaynestamps4

After creating the background on the vellum using Stampin' Blends and 91% rubbing alcohol I embossed the layer with the Painted Texture 3D Embossing folder. I then lightly rubbed the raised embossed ridges with a Versamark ink pad, sprinkled with Heat & Stick Powder, and then gently heated with a Heat Tool. Immediately after heating I pressed the layer into my container of Gilded Leafing, rubbing and brushing away the excess with a medium-t0-soft brush.  You need to be careful to just barely touch the Versamark pad to the raised ridges of the layer or you will end up with a blotchy mess like this:

Stampin’ Up! Artistically Inked Happiest of Birthdays!

Stampin’ Up! Artistically Inked Happiest of Birthdays!

Hey there! I have another Artistically Inked birthday card to share with you today. I combined this bundle with the Happiest of Birthdays set to create this:

Stampin_up_artistically_inked_happiest_of_birthdays_carolpaynestamps2

I love this big bold greeting from Happiest of Birthdays! I stamped it with Blackberry Bliss ink, then added Fresh Freesia blooms all around with Soft Succulent leaves.

Stampin_up_artistically_inked_happiest_of_birthdays_carolpaynestamps3

The leaves from the Artistic Dies is so gorgeous! I cut it with Gold Foil, then bent the stems a little extra to fit the 4" width of the card front. I put an Adhesive Sheet on the back of the Gold Foil before running it through the Stampin' Cut & Emboss to make adhering the leaves to the card a snap!

Stampin_up_artistically_inked_happiest_of_birthdays_carolpaynestamps5 (2)

Inside I stamped a sentiment from Tasteful Touches and a few more Fresh Freesia/Soft Succulent blooms. I used a paper saving trick before adhering the gold foil mat to the stamped layer.

Stampin_up_artistically_inked_happiest_of_birthdays_carolpaynestamps5 (1)

 I used a Rectangle Stitched Die to cut out the center of the gold layer. I used the frame behind the inside layer and kept the solid rectangle for a later project!

Stampin’ Up! Artistically Inked Faux Linen!

Stampin’ Up! Artistically Inked Faux Linen!

Hey there! My Artistically Inked card for today features the "Faux Linen" technique! I highlighted Fresh Freesia and Pear Pizzazz for a fresh, spring look!

Stampin_up_artistically_inked_faux_linen_carolpaynestamps1 (2)

The faux linen technique is super simple! Stamp the images on a piece of white tissue paper, cut at about 6" x 6" or larger, with regular Stampin' Up Classic ink. Crumple the tissue into a wad, semi-smooth it back out, then adhere to a Basic White layer with liquid glue, leaving some of the wrinkles in the tissue and wrapping the paper around to the back and adhering with more glue or Stampin' Seal.

Stampin_up_artistically_inked_faux_linen_carolpaynestamps2 (2)

I cut the greeting and the Pear Pizzazz mat with the same Tasteful Labels Die. I also added an Opal Round for a bit of shine.

Stampin_up_artistically_inked_faux_linen_carolpaynestamps4

Inside I used a Tasteful Touches sentiment.

Stampin’ Up! Artistically Inked Stenciled!

Stampin’ Up! Artistically Inked Stenciled!

Hey there! The Expressions In Ink Specialty Designer Paper is currently on backorder until June 28th, which means you can still order it but it won't ship to you until after that date.

With that in mind, I thought you might enjoy seeing some cards created with just the Artistically Inked Bundle to give you some ideas to use while you wait for your specialty paper to ship!

Stampin_up_artistically_inked_stenciled_carolpaynestamps2 (2)

I created today's card with a stencil I cut with one of the Artistic Dies.

Stampin_up_artistically_inked_stenciled_carolpaynestamps7 (2)

I used a Blending Brush with Coastal Cabana, Bermuda Bay, and Granny Apple Green ink to blend color over the stencil in more than one area of the Basic White layer.

Stampin_up_artistically_inked_stenciled_carolpaynestamps8 (2)

I cut the flower and leaves with Artistic dies, adding a Coastal Cabana Playing With Patterns Resin Dot and Clear Wink of Stella to the bloom.

Stampin_up_artistically_inked_stenciled_carolpaynestamps3

I used the same Blending Brush to add Coastal Cabana to the greeting strip and then added a scallop edge cut with a Penned Flower die.

Inside I used one of my favorite Peaceful Moments sentiments.
