Nigezza Creates aka Gez, Independent Stampin' Up® Demonstrator
Thank you for visiting my blog, I really do appreciate it. Today I am bringing you the tutorial for the Technique Tuesday blog hop. This month we are showing techniques of getting the vintage look. This is probably my favourite type of crafting so I was really pleased when I saw this theme. I have used different methods to make different papers look old and vintage. I use inks and stamps to achieve this. I decided to recreate a card I made in a recent Facebook live and this time make it in a vintage style
Measurements and Materials
- I used the browns from the Neutrals family and my favourite stamps sets for adding a vintage look
- Very Versailles
- The script in this set is perfect
- There are other images but it is mainly the script that I use
- Quite Meadow
- The spray of dots in the set is great for creating age spots
- Ink is applied with
- Blending brushes
- Sponge daubers
- Also by dabbing the ink pad on my glass mat and spraying it with water and then dipping the paper into the ink
- I also used the Timeworn embossing folder and added ink with the blending brush
- For the card I stamped the flower image using
- Early Espresso
- Soft Suede
- This was to give the image a sepia look which is further enhanced by adding crumb cake with a blending brush and inking the edges of the die cut with Soft Suede ad a sponge dauber
- Card base
- Half a standard sheet
- 8 1/4" x 5 7/8"
- Score @ 4 1/8" on the long side
- US size card - 8 1/2" x 5 1/2
- Score @ 4 1/4"
- Metric 21cm x 14.5cm
- Score @ 10.5cm
- Card Ma1 1 - 5 5/8" x 3 7/8"
- US size 5 1/4" x 4"
- Metric 14cm x 10cm
- Card Mat 2 - 5 3/8" x 3 5/8"
- US size 5" x 3 3/4"
- Metric 13.5cm x 9.5cm
Now watch the video tutorial to see how this was made :-)
