Special Feature - Making Embelishments using Rubber Stamps



Making Embellishments using Rubber stamps,  Maimeri Mediums and PanPastels: Tutorial by Claire

You can make some really fun embellishments for your projects using your rubber stamps with PanPastels and Maimeri Mediums.
  1. For this technique you will need: rubber stamp, stazon inkpad, Maimeri Iridescent Paste, PanPastels (I used Magenta Extra dark for this project), a spatula and a mixing pot.


 2. Put a little Maimeri Iridescent Medium into a mixing pot, use your spatula to scrape a little PanPastel in and mix with the spatula.





 3.       Ink up your rubber stamp with stazon ink and then scrape the mixture out and ‘blob’ it on to the  stamp:



4.       Spread the mixture over the surface of the stamp using the spatula, you should have a thick even layer of mix


Once again you have to have a little patience now, leave it for a couple of days to dry

5.       Once the mixture has dried, gently peel the embellishment off the stamp



The mixture will have dried to create a flexible embellishment so you can use it on 3d projects, it will also have picked up all the detail of the stamp

Challenge 20 - New Beginnings



As the seasons battle it out as to when the Summer will actually begin, it's inevitable that it will at some point, so looking ahead to the hot summer evenings we can hopefully spend in the garden, under the parasol instead of an umbrella, new beginnings is the weeks theme.

Of course it's not all about the seasons, new beginnings can be a new job, a new baby, marriage, new home etc etc.

So let's get those creative juices flowing and show us what your new beginning is.  Your entry must be a finished project and signifies a new beginning.

Let's see what our super talented Design Team have come up with to inspire you all.
