#DOswts357 Color Blocking

Color Blocking? I had to ask about this one! Apparently it is when you stamp on several sheets of card stock and then "puzzle piece" the image with die shapes. The sample that we were given was to use square and rectangle dies. I tried mine with the triangle dies. Take a look:

It was kind of a tedious technique to try, but the fact that it creates so many different colored cards with one layout is a time saver!

I used these Stampin' Up Supplies:

Cardstock = Basic White Thick Cardstock for the card base. Real Red, Daffodil Delight, Pumpkin Pie, Granny Apple Green, Gorgeous Grape, and Balmy Blue 

Ink = Momento Black, Real Red, Bumble Bee, Pumpkin Pie, Granny Apple Green, and Balmy Blue

Stamp Sets = Textured Essentials, Pattern Play

Dies = Stitched Triangles

I hope that you will give this technique a try!

Happy Hopping!

#DOswts356 Sketch "Inspire"

Stamping with the Stars Sketch Challenge:

My version:

Stamp Set = Silhouette Scenes (149223)

Dies = Sweet Silhouettes (149541), Layering Circles (151770)

Ink Pad = Momento Black (132708)

Card Stock = White Thick (159229) 5 1/2" x 8 1/2 " scored at 4 1/4"

                      Basic Black (121045) 1" x 3" scrap  

                      Daffodil Delight (146989) 5 1/4" x 4"  AND 2 1/2" square scrap for circle

                      Pumpkin Pie (105117) 3 1/4" x 4"

                      Poppy Parade (119793) 1" x 4"

Extra = Matte Black Dots (154284), Stampin' Dimensionals (104430), Stamparatus (146276)

Directions:

I used the Stamparatus (repeatedly) to get a good dark image for the silhouette, then cut with the circle die and popped it up with dimensionals. The dots for the "i"s in the word 'inspire' are the  matte black dots, as is the focus point for the explorer.

Thanks for stopping by my Blog! Have fun hopping!
