Oct Technique #1 - Brayered Sky & Moonlighting
October 09, 2008
For this month's Hedgehog Stamping Club Technqiue Class, one of the Technique Cards was this beauty (if I say so myself)! Ain't it gorgeous? Even my husband offered an unsolicited remark (unheard of! LOL)
It's surprisingly easy to acheive. It's actually two technique in one.
1) Moonlighting - which is masking off a moon or sun shape, then adding ink (with sponge or brayer). Then remove your mask to reveal your moon.
2) Brayered Sky - using your brayer, cover your glossy cardstock with 3 different colors beginning with your lightest color which you cover your entire cardstock. The second color, just add to 2/3rd of your cardstock, then only 1/3rd of your cardstock with the darkest color.
Supplies: Nature Silhouettes, Inspired by Nature, Sincere Salutations stamp sets, Versamark, Basic Black, Bashful Blue, Baja Breeze, Night of Navy, Basic Gray and Glossy White Cardstock, Wide Oval punch, 1 3/8" circle punch (for moon mask), Mini Library clips, Natural Hemp Twine, Brayer
I love the way it turned out and so did my club members!
Join a stamping club and you too can do projects like these every month!
