Ghost Stamping

Ok, So, I think I’ve got a reasonable posting schedule plan for the time being, I’m trying two video’s a week – a Technique Tuesday, and Fun Friday! with my regular card projects between. Currently the only days I haven’t got a scheduled post planned are Wednesdays and Sundays; however, I’m leaving these free so I have some time to share the Weekly Deals and other exciting news!

With that said, it’s Technique Tuesday – so I probably should share my technique with you.

Ghost Stamping!

Stampin' Up! UK Hello Darling Ghost Stamping

I loved playing with this technique, and its super simple! Here I have used a Sahara Sand card base, with a 3″ square of Melon Mambo card stock, and a 2 3/4″ piece of Sahara Sand for stamping. The image is first stamped in Stampin’ Up! White Craft Ink. This ink is a pigment ink, and so takes a little while to dry – be warned! I tend to stamp, go away and make another card or a coffee (or check Facebook / Pinterest) and by the time I come back its dry. You can encourage the drying process with your Heat Tool too.

Then stamp your image again in your coloured ink – I’ve used Melon Mambo here. Off-set the two stamped imaged slightly to create the ghostly effect. I find that more solid stamps work better, creating that white halo, and I always use my Stamp-a-ma-jig for perfect placement when using Wood or Clear mount stamps.

I posted this card a few weeks ago as part of my Sale-a-bration celebration week, and when I shared it across several Facebook groups, I had several requests for a tutorial. So here we are!

Stampin' Up! UK Big Day sale-a-bration BokehThis is the original card, using Elegant Eggplant, Perfect Plum and Pink Pirouette. I have loved using this Sale-a-bration stamp set – Big Day, its come in really handy for men’s birthday cards and other awkward folk!

Stampin' Up! UK Bokeh Hello DarlingI have recreated the card using a stamp set from the annual catalogue – Hello Darling. I love the floral images in this set. You could use the tag for the sentiment, but I decided to leave this one plain, I can attach a sentiment later when I decide who it is destined for.

A few tips:

  • bright colours work better
  • try different shapes – heart Bokeh is really pretty.
  • leave you Bokeh piece to dry completely before assembling your card

Stampin' Up! UK I like you Stampin Write Markers

 

This card uses a Crushed Curry Card base, and a piece of Colour Me Autumn DSP (the colours in this pack of DSP are gorgeous – Blackberry Bliss, Crushed Curry, Mossy Meadow, Cajun Craze, Old Olive! <3). I stamped the DSP with Crushed Curry ink using the Hello Darling Stamp set (one of the ones I chose as my freebies!).

I coloured the Flower stamp with my Stampin’ Write Markers in Crushed Curry, Cajun Craze, and Old Olive, before stamping onto the DSP

 

 

Stampin' Up! UK I like you Stampin Write Markers

 

The sentiment for this card comes from the FREE good greetings stamp set, stamped in Mossy Meadow onto the same DSP, and punched out using the Modern Label Punch, layered with two other punched pieces

I didn’t think Crushed Curry was really going to be my colour! Boy, was I Wrong!
