Magnolia Whitewash Technique This is such a fun and addicting technique. Get out your Aquapainter and inks and have fun!!
I first stamped the Magnolia Bloom in VersaMark then heat embossed it in Gold Embossing Powder. Then using your Aquapainter with just a small amount of water, paint on a light layer of Whisper White Craft Ink. Let it completely dry. Then using Old Olive and Melon Mambo inks, (squeezing the lid of the ink pad leaves a little pool of ink inside the lid, this is your palette) colour in the flower and leaves. I started off with a very light coat of ink, then went back and highlighted some areas with a slightly darker layer. I kept the card design very simple, I wanted the flower to be the focus! I also didn't add any sentiment to the card front, this way it can be used for almost any occasion!
Supplies Used: Card Stock: Crumb Cake and Basic Black Ink: Versamark, Whisper White Craft Ink, Old Olive and Melon Mambo Classic Ink Accessories: Gold Embossing Powder, Heat Tool, Glittered Organdy Black Ribbon Give this technique a try!! Happy stamping and Creating! Arlene
Supplies Used: Card Stock/DSP: Whisper White, Gold Glimmer Paper and Wrapped In Plaid DSP Ink: Night Of Navy Stamps: Perfectly Plaid Accessories: Pine Tree Punch, Shaded Spruce/Gold Ribbon, Seasonal Wreath 3D Embossing Folder and Metallic Pearls Happy Stamping and Creating!! Arlene

The strip of Designer Series Paper is Magnolia Lane coloured with the So Saffron Stampin' Blends. It completely changes the look of the DSP. So many possibilities!! I adhered the DSP to the Mossy Meadow panel then embossed it with the Subtle 3D embossing folder.
I stamped the Free As A Bird in Memento Black ink and coloured using the Stampin' Blends. They are attached to a Stitched Shape Oval with some pretty Black Glittered Organdy Ribbon behind. The flourish is from the Well Written Dies. I finished it off with some Rhinestones.
