I just love using this technique Ingrid, it is so effective! I have never thought to add 2 colours to the stamps to create some interest like you did here. I only have the make up brushes but they seem to do the blending trick perfectly. I am going to try this again! Thanks heaps for the inspiration.

Thanks for the awesome tips. I’m definitely going to give them a try. Isn’t the reveal awesome. I always look forward to it. I made stencils for my daughter’s class. As they were painting, almost all of them were saying that they were doing horrible. Every time we took the stencil off, their faces just lit up and they were impressed at how good it turned out. Stencils immediately became magical. It really made my day to be able to share this with them.

Gorgeous card and thanks for all those tips. Your video is so professional with all the different camera angles - really helpful when you're showing the blending with the brushes!

Wow, wow wow. Who would have guessed this would have turned out as stunning as it has. Thank you

Beautiful! I can really see the difference, how adding the brown shading to stamped images and adding the touch in each corner draws you in, making you take notice. Thanks for sharing this technique and tutorial 🤗
God bless ❤ XOXO

I absolutely love your tip about adding a 2nd color to the stamp - they came out beautiful.

Stopped by to check out your post. I loved the use of the small brush to add a contrasting color to the ferns and leaves.

Thank you so much Ingrid! I just had the funnest day making cards with this technique. I love how all six cards turned out. My first one was an experiment, so, not great. But once I got the hang of things I couldn’t stop. I’m still doing a happy dance. Thanks again.

Thank you for sharing your work flow. I really like those coloured leaf stamps. The end result looks very eye catching and creative. I admit that my card making process is very different in my greeting card video.
