Faux Brush Lettering

Hello Friends...

Welcome to Inspired by Stamping inspiration post…

Hope you all are doing well...

Today I am sharing a technique called Faux Brush Lettering with the help of Just For You stamp set from our newest release.

Start by choosing a sentiment that has brush lettering font.

I used the Just For You stamp because it has big & bold sentiment perfect for trying out this new (for me) technique...

I decided to use blues & greens for my sentiment so I stamped the sentiment with Tumbled Glass Distress ink on a piece of watercolor cardstock. You can use any light shade of ink you have which matches the final colors that you want to use. I feel distress inks are best for this technique because of their water reactive property.

Next take a brush & start painting over the stamped sentiment. Keep the start of the stroke dark and let the ink fade towards the end of the stroke. I have used 2 colors to add a little more interest as I planned on keeping the card simple.

To assemble the card I trimmed the sentiment panel & mounted it on slightly larger black cardstock before gluing it down to the card base.

I took the Here's a hug from the same stamp set & heat embossed it on black cardstock with white embossing powder. Cut it into a banner & adhered it on the card.

Finally I added 2 tiny hearts made with Nuvo Crystal Drops (Green Apple).

I hope you like my card & give this fun technique a try...
Thank you so much for visiting today...

I love Everything About You

Hello friends...

Hope you all are doing well...

I have a clean & simple card to share today...

Recently I got some new stencils & I can't seem to get enough of them... specially the one I used today...

I made a love card but skipped the traditional red & pink colors to make it more masculine,,,

I started with 3 white 2"x2" cardstock squares... I inked 2 of them using my stencil & inks & stamped my sentiment from My Valentine stamp set on the 3rd one.

Then I proceeded to mount them on slightly larger black & white cardstocks.

I used an embossing folder to emboss the background & then arranged & adhered everything down on an A2 card base.

I added few rhinestones for the much needed bling in this simple card.

I hope you like my card... thank you so much for visiting today... Have a great weekend :)

My Valentine

If Friends Were Flowers

Hello Friends...

Welcome to Inspired by Stamping inspiration post…Today I am sharing a card made with the beautiful Cherry Blossoms stamp set...

I mostly use distress inks to color in my images but this time I have tried coloring with alcohol markers...

To make this card I started with my focal point... I stamped the image with versamark ink & heat embossed it with black embossing powder... next I colored it with 2-3 shades of red & green alcohol markers... Next I stamped my sentiment with black ink... Then I die cut it with my stitched rectangle die...

I cut 2 more pieces with different sizes of the same die set... Embossed the largest diecut panel & inked them with grey ink... it is amazing how a card transforms by adding some embossed texture and little detail...
