Card making Stamping & Colouring - guidance

By Carolyn - June 27, 2022

We are going to stamp images onto card and watercolour paper and colour them in.

I am no expert on this, I just enjoy playing about, and find it easier to use watercolours, but you can choose felt pens.

I will bring

Watercolour pencils/paints/pens/paint brushes
Images already stamped

If you can bring any of the following for the colouring:

Any colouring things you have
Paint brushes
Small jar for water (a couple)
Clipboard could be handy if you want to sit outside and paint
Ribbons/embellishments that you may have a small box eg empty icecream box just to keep all of your bits together until we have created into cards. It's worth bringing something (but not essential) that you want to put on card with you - as you can then colour your image to match.

For another session I can bring

Stamps
Ink pads
Card
Blank cards
Card blanks
Paper trimmer

then to make into cards, another session.

Coloured card or paper
Glue stick/double sided tape/liquid glue
Scissors for paper/card

There is a box of things at Judy’s that has some patterned paper and card that I cleared out a while ago, and there is possibly some things in the haberdashery that would work on cards too.

There are some videos of my stamps on this link https://photos.app.goo.gl/Azsh4KpzomyeoSsa6
