Hidy Ho Stampers,
CURRENT HOSTESS CODE: JMDQAN2N
It’s off to convention today but wanted to send you my card first! It’s such a neat card with an old technique.
These both have a Tip Top Taupe background
instead of the usual white (the picture doesn’t do them justice)
and here is the white background
Here is the video. If your viewing this from your email, you neeeeeeed to click on the picture to get to my blog to see it. Sorry, it’s something to do with something I don’t understand :0)!!!!
My Grab and Go Bags are still for sale!
looooooove it!
Card Dimensions:
Base card 4 1/4″ x 11″ and scored at 5 1/2″; Basic Black layer is 4″ x 5 1/4″; Tip Top Taupe Layer is 3 1/2″ x 4 3/4″. Cut a piece of Tissue at least 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2 (I’d go even a little bigger).
Blender Pen Solution
For a 1 ounce bottle fill…(Eyedropper bottle works best)
1/3 parts Glycerin (found in cake decorating section of craft store)
2/3 parts distilled water
¼ teaspoon alcohol
- Remove pen tip (pull and twist gently and lay the tips flat overnight in fluid.
- Fill the pen barrel with the solution.
- Place pen tip back in hollow by pushing gently (do not push tip but glide it in holding on the sides).
Thanks for another great tutorial Deb. Appreciate you showing the different effects with the alternate inked backgrounds.
Looking forward to trying this technique. Thanks
Really like this technique. Thanks for the video. Will have to try it. And thanks ever so much for the blender pen recipe. Have several pens and some are dry so will try that too. Edna
