The tree stamp, everyone fell in love with, it is tremendous. I'll share what I did with it.
Because the stamp is so big, it allows you to play with colours on the actual rubber. I "inked" up the stamp using my Distress Paint Daubers, I used the brown and then the blue. I then spritzed onto the stamp with the ink spritzer, which is yellow, and blends the paints wonderfully. The acrylic block is A4, so fits the stamp perfectly. I then used the Distress Crayons on the edge of the card, and dragged the ink across with a wet paintbrush. This gives a lovely soft background blend. Use watercolour card for the best results.
This time, I stamped the tree with staz-on, but I wanted a more subtle and misty effect, so I gave my card a wash with DecoArt Tinting Medium. This is lovely, as it gives it a subtle wash. I stamped over the top of the tree with the beautiful faery, and coloured her in with Distress Crayons. I love this.
