Cricut Embossing

Posted in Paper Crafts on 07/13/2009 08:38 am by admin

This has been a while since I made a card with my business stamps. I was using my Cricut Expression machine to make my greeting cards lately and I wanted to go back and use some of my pads rubber boats that I have, and damn I need stamps crafts. One day I'll post photos of all stamps that have boats.

Anyway Regardless, this birthday card I wanted to share with you first stamps craft a really cute, some cool rubber stamping techniques and all this while I am making a birthday card for my father-in-law. When he was at my home in March, I took his first job ever rubber stamps Convention. He could not believe how many stamps they had different gears and the number of ladies were all in a convention center. It was great and we found some special rubber stamps craft, so I thought I would show him what I can create using stamping techniques that I learned over the years.

I just love boats stamps relating to cats, and this stamp Crafts particular reminds me of my cat Tapioca. He is so cute.

What you need:

Craft Cat stamps (stamps Judith)
Feelings - Happy Birthday ~ Perfectly Clear stamps crafts (Stampendous)
StazOn Solvent Ink Pad Black
Watercolor pencils (Loew-Cornell)
Brush with water
Flower Pot punch paper (Emagine)
Paper from Stampin 'Up: Really Rust, Sage Shadow, Barely Banana, and Basic Black. I no idea where I got the white cardstock.
Dots pop and tape runner

How is the following:

I first cut all the card stock listed above to get the layered look I wanted for this card.
Then I trampled the trade stamps in my cat image Black StazOn ink pad. I then highlighted the powder on wet ink and heat set.

The reason I used the ink solvent and relief that I will use my watercolor crayons to color in the image and I not want the ink to run in black colors.

I used watercolor pencils with my brush water color cat and stem and leaves. I then used another of my great stamping techniques and has been in the flower color with a marker embossing and then placed on the embossing powders. The help of my heat gun I then the flower has a shiny finish.

I cut out the brown paper flowerpot. I put the pop points only at the rim of the flowerpot, and then used my tape runner to the bottom of the flowerpot. I wanted to give an appearance in three dimensions as the cat was really sitting in the flowerpot.

Then I used Tulip Color Point Stitch paint to make the dirt. I really got inside the rim to get the effect that the cat was in the pot. I still used my heat gun to set the paint and give the puffy look uneven. (When I'm cleaning my closet craft a few months ago I came across all these paintings Tulip and all my stamps boats almost forgot, I finished with a small black and white ribbon that I tied around the neck for a fun look for my cat.

I hope he like the card because I used stamps craft stamps for upcoming birthdays and holidays.
Hope you enjoyed it too!
