Hello All!!!
Today, I am sharing some tips to create some backgrounds and stamping and coloring using Gelatos and Big brush Markers over at Faber-Castell Design Memory blog. I am pretty sure you will like the CAS cards I created. Check it out
HERE.
Today I want to share how to create simple yet beautiful backgrounds and how to stamp and color using Gelatos® and Stamper’s Big Brush Pens.
I can say it again: the color code system by Faber-Castell Design Memory Craft® makes it easy to mix and match various products for the desired effect :)
I created two Clean and Simple cards for today.
Card 1:
This is how I created it:
For the background, I just scribbled some white PITT artist pen and Blue Big Brush Marker directly over my craft mat and misted with water using a mini mister. Then, I mixed the both colors using the back (the wooden tip) of a paint brush.
I then took a piece of watercolor paper and put it directly over this droplets of color. After that, I just flipped the paper and there I have a beautiful marbled effect background. While I was at it, I created 2 of them (I used the other one for my 2nd card)
Now, I simply stamped the Poppy flower by Penny Black stamps onto my base.
I then scribbled some of the Big Brush Pen and added a bit of water. Flicked some onto this panel.
Onto another paper, I embossed the same image. Now I applied 2 shades of gelatos and rubbed them with my fingers to blend from light to dark. Then I used PITT markers add some depth and blended it with my finger just by tapping it a bit. These PITT broad markers blend beautifully over Gelatos. Now to give more life to the flowers, just add a dot of white artist pen over the area to highlight it and tap with the finger (Tip: White artist pen dries quicker than other pens, so always blend each stroke immediately )
Fussy cut the flowers and adhere it over the stamped panel and stamp the sentiment.
Card: 2
I created the background same as above. Once my background was dry, I simply stamped it repeatedly using this beautiful Ikat stamp by Avery Elle. I used the Big Brush Marker to stamp. Just huff once after applying the ink to the stamp.
To finish just stamp the sentiment using black PITT big brush pen.
