A project from our live show Stamping Techniques - Lamination Stamp - Sketched Design - Skeleton Stamping - 22ND Dec 21 · 12/22/2021
Create a stunning watercolour-effect card using a two-part lamination stamp system. The design features a sketched floral element stamped in multiple colours that blend together when sprayed with water, creating a realistic artistic finish with a sentiment banner accent.
Stamp the outline portion of the lamination stamp onto the right-hand side of your card using coloured ink pads rather than black or grey.
Apply green ink to the solid green parts of the design, then add a red or pink colour to the flower details.
Enhance the design by stamping again with a darker colour on the flower to add more depth and detail.
Remove the outline stamp and line up the solid portion of the lamination stamp over your first stamped image, referring to the packaging guide if needed.
Colour the solid stamp portion using a light colour on the flower and different shades of green elsewhere, adding touches of purple to enhance the flower.
Spray the entire stamped design with water to allow the colours to bleed and blend together, creating a realistic watercolour finish.
Stamp a sentiment phrase onto a separate piece of card using black ink.
Cut the sentiment into a banner or tab shape using scissors.
Cut a foam pad in half and attach it to the back of the sentiment banner to add dimension to your card.
Mount the watercolour stamped element onto white card stock, then attach this to a coloured card base.
Position the sentiment banner down the side of the card, ensuring it is as straight as possible.
Add sparkle to the design using a sparkle pen to catch the light and enhance the overall effect.
