Tips For A Perfectly Stamped Layered Background with Lydia Evans
Lydia Evans demonstrates some great tips for spacing & stamping layered images to create a perfect background!
Hello everyone! It's Lydia here and I'm so excited to be sharing my very first video here in the Ellen Hutson Classroom! So today I'm sharing a card made with the very pretty and EXCLUSIVE United We Flourish Stitched Together Stamp & Die Set with Waffle Flower. The set is so pretty and unlike anything I have in my stash.
To start I drew pencil lines all over a card panel so I could get my images spread out evenly. I also create a 'guide', by stamping the world image onto a piece of cardstock and cutting around it, this really helped when positioning stamps on the first layer. I then placed my gridded cardstock panel into my Misti, placed the guide where I wanted to stamp the image, placed the water layer in place over the guide, removed the guide and then stamped the image into position. I used Altenew Mountain Mist Ink for the water layer.
Once I had stamped all of the water images I moved on to Flower Layer 1 which I then stamped using Pinkalicious Ink. Next up I went onto Flower Layer 2 which I used Rubellite Ink. The Leaves layer was the easiest to stamp as this just goes where no other ink colour has been before, I used Olive Ink for this.
To fill in some of the white space on the background I used the 3 little images on the stamp set to create sweet little stitched roses, I used the same colour combo as I used for the flower and leaf areas on the globes. To finish I added a sentiment from the same stamp set that I white heat embossed onto some black cardstock. For a full step by step on how I created this card please check out the video below:
