Rubber Stamping - North Wales

Hi everyone - I hope you are having a pleasant weekend. Yesterday I told you about my stamping session - so here are some of the pictures as promised; On this tag I used Tattered Rose & Milled Lavender.  As I stated yesterday I start with the lighter colour, then go to the darker colour & often go back to the lighter colour again to complete the blending. This tag was made with Fired Brick & Wild Honey.  I often use FB with Vintage Photo but that would have been too dark for this image. Here is the piece of resist technique that I also did - I used Crushed Olive & Wild Honey for this; Whilst stamping the tags I made one using the same colours as this resist piece & the two go together well of course, so that is what I will be putting together today, but not until I have made a birthday card for our grand-daughter who will be 15 on Wednesday. That is it for today.  'Bye for now.

I stamped the image & embossed with clear EP, then coloured the tag with the distress inks.  I like to work with 2 colours & as is standard practice I start with the palest colour first, then come in with the darker complimentary colour.  I also sometimes go back over with the lighter colour to tone things down if I feel it is too dark.  I forgot to take a note of the colours for each tag.  I have taken photos & will blog them tomorrow, by which time I will sort out which colours I used. Following my rubber stamping workshop yesterday I realised that these days I don't do a lot of resist work - so thought I would round today's play session off with some resist.  A...
