CCEE1323 Direct to Paper


Our hostess for the month of June is Brenda O'Rear (Benzi).  She challenged us to use the direct to paper technique.

I stamped my ink directly from the pad (Tim Holtz Distress Ink Pads) to the white background, then inked stamps to place on the squares made by the pads.

I hope you will want to join us, this week and every week for FUN!  Please link your card HERE , and be sure to check out the whole team's entries.

I like this, Anne. At first I thought you had used acrylic blocks, but I see from the description that you did indeed use the ink pads. It gives the same effect.

Such a very pretty CAS card, Anne. Love that image (you know, the RED one!)

Very pretty, Anne. I do like this easy technique that allows a quick card. Good job!

Anne,
Your card is lovely and elegant and the colors are soft and serene!

Duh, why didn't I think of just using the pad to stamp instead of swiping it! Much easier, and so very effective. I love the organic feel to this with those soft earth tones.

This is so pretty, I love the colors. I also thought you had used the acryllic blocks. Good job with the challenge.
