It's been awhile since I've used the Lotsa Dotsa Stamp from Red Rubber Designs, and wanted to feature all of the fun circles on this card, made with Distress Inks to achieve an ombre effect, inspired by my Dad's beautiful blue eyes!
My design inspiration came from Stella Says Sketch Challenge #711.
My design inspiration came from Stella Says Sketch Challenge #711.
I started with white cardstock and my blending tool, to apply Distress Inks from the bottom with (Peacock Feathers), and worked my way up with (Mermaid Lagoon, Salty Ocean, and Blueprint Sketch) on top. Then I sprayed the long strip from the Lotsa Dotsa Stamp with water, and pressed it onto the center of my paper. A few more sprays of waters, and my ombre effect was done. Once dry, I hand-stitched the scallops, and stamped the sentiment with the Contemporary Greetings Stamp using Palette Ink (Starry Night).
The white splatters were embossed with the So Splattered Stamp, using Lindy's Gang (Purely White) Embossing Powder, also used with the smaller circles from the Lotsa Dotsa Stamp.
To keep with the ombre effect, I stamped the larger circles from the Lotsa Dotsa Stamp onto my white card base, using Distress Inks (Mermaid Lagoon and Blueprint Sketch), showcased in this shaker filled with small glitter circles, and sequins.
Thanks for stopping by, and shop for these stamps and more at Red Rubber Designs!
