Hi everyone! Erum here with TWO new projects and a video for the Creative Coloring with Erum video series. My projects today feature the Bold Bouquet Stamp.
I love the look of this stamp! Have you noticed how different it looks when you flip it? So, I decided to create two cards, positioning the stamp set differently. I also wanted to show you how different an image looks when you change the color palette. I am sharing two one-layer cards with entirely different colorways and layouts here.
Bold Bouquet in Warm Hues
- On a 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ panel of Classic Crest Solar White Cardstock, stamp the image from the Bold Boquet Stamp Set in Obsidian Pigment Ink slightly off the edge.
- Using the Bold Boquet Coloring Stencils, through stencil 1, apply Ruby Red Crisp Dye Ink and diffuse it when moving to the smaller flowers.
- Through the same stencil, apply Sunray Crisp Dye Ink to the top-most flowers and Autumn Blaze and Marigold Crisp Dye Ink to the flowers in the middle. Your stencil should have colors transition from red to orange to yellow.
- Through stencil 2, apply the same color of inks, in transition, Ruby Red, Autumn Blaze, Marigold, and Sunray, plus also add Citrus Burst Crisp Dye Ink.
- Through stencil 3, again, apply inks in the same transition method.
- Through stencil 4, apply Moss Crisp Dye Ink to most of the leaves, and to the rest of the leaves, add Parrot Crisp Dye Ink to add vibrancy.
- Using a Fine Liner Pen and a ruler, draw a border around the panel, skipping the image.
- Stamp sentiment in Obsidian Pigment Ink.
Bold Bouquet in Cool Hues
- On a 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ panel of Classic Crest Solar White Cardstock, stamp the image from the Bold Boquet Stamp Set in Obsidian Pigment Ink slightly off the edge. Change the position of the stamp so it looks different from the first card.
- Using the Bold Boquet Coloring Stencils, through stencil 1, apply Crystal Violet Fresh Dye Ink.
- Though Stencil 2, apply the same ink and a bit of Turquoise Crisp Dye Ink to add variation.
- Through stencil 3, apply the same two inks as per your liking.
- Through stencil 4, apply Forest Fern Fresh Dye Ink on most leaves and Razzleberry Crisp Dye Ink to the rest.
- Next, use a Fine Liner Pen and a t-ruler to draw horizontal lines of various thicknesses across the panel, skipping the image. Use Jet Black Artist Alcohol Marker to make them thicker or floor them in. (This is absolutely optional! You can also use pattern paper/stamp underneath, die-cut the image, and pop it over.)
- Add fine black paint splatters.
- Stamp sentiment in Obsidian Pigment Ink.
