Good Morning & Welcome to another Stamping Techniques 101 Blog Hop! This month we are all doing the Painted Acrylic Handle/Block Technique.
Now when I first saw the name of this technique I wondered what on earth an Acrylic Handle was! Then I found out it was our Acrylic Blocks – funny how we all have different names for one product!
Here’s what I’ve created for you today ..
Painted Acrylic Block Technique
This is a quick and wonderful technique and quite easy to do with just a few a products required.
What you’ll need …
- Acrylic Block
- Stampin Write Markers
- Stampin Spritzer (with water)
- Shimmery White Cardstock or Watercolour Paper
Technique How to …
- Clean your block and colour randomly with markers – use 2 or 3 colours
- Spritz block with water & tilt block to blend colours
- Stamp block onto cardstock and give it a good press all over
- Lift block and leave to dry or dry with Heat Tool
Once you’ve done your background piece you simply work out what stamps to use over the top.
I used Peekaboo Peach, Berry Burst and Lemon Lime Twist markers to colour on my block then I stamped the Rose from Graceful Garden and heat embossed with copper embossing powder.
