Hello and welcome! I created this card after watching the Irresistible Inking Techniques class that is part of my Altenew Educator Certification Program (AECP) Level 1 taught by Sara Naumann. There were four lessons in this class each showing a different and unique way to use your inks.
For today's card I am using the Stamp Block Technique. I used Distress Oxide Inks and had to do this several times before I was able to get a good rectangular shape. I was spraying too much water onto my block and the inks were seeping out the sides. I should have used the other side of the stamp block since the side I used is showing the grid marks of the block.
I do want to mention that I did not use regular cardstock. I used coated cardstock. The video mentioned that it would take longer to dry but it really didn't. I was able to stamp an image from the Starry Flower stamp set pretty quickly.
The closeup shots shows the grid marks more clearly. I thought it added a bit of interest to my card so I left it. I liked this technique and will try it again in the future using different shaped stamp blocks.
Thanks for dropping by today!
