CTC#369 CASE A Blending Brush Technique

The CASE-ing The Catty Crew are a group of Stampin' Up! demonstrators from Australia & New Zealand who take inspiration weekly from the catalogues. The catalogues are a fantastic resource and we love to inspire you to seek inspiration there too. This week we are CASE-ing a Blending Brush Technique.

This technique is Emboss Resist and the addition of blending brushes to our range has made this so much easier to get a fab result.

Beginning with thick basic white card die cut with the Scalloped Contour dies, 2 flower images were stamped from Shaded Summer in Versamark. I'm very happy that this stamp set carried over, AND although I haven't used them here, the dies are back! It might have even been 12 months since they were a special sale-a-bration offering.

Once white embossing powder is added to the Versamark, and heated, it's time to grab the blending brush. I used the same one, although I used 3 colours on this card. Petal Pink was first, then Flirty Flamingo and lastly Calypso Coral.

The DSP had the perfect pastel tones I had in mind, and I was glad not to have to replicate that effect, although it would be possible. Although the trellis pieces and the Waves of the Ocean DSP are retired items now, you may be like me and have some of each left in your stash.

If you should like to challenge yourself, please look through the catalogue and find a project featuring Blending Brushes and CASE away. Mine was from page 18, the card with the BIG greeting.We'd love to see lots of entries, so give it a go, and share at the link.

Next on the hop is the fabulous Julia Quinn.
