Pondering Away

Take a deep breath, close your eyes, and imagine sitting by the lake and leaning against a tree. You sit quietly and ponder, taking nature in through your senses. Your mind is suddenly filled with...




Stamps:
   Sheltering Tree

Paper:
   Lost Lagoon A-2
   Mossy Meadow 5 x 3-3/4
   Whisper White 4-3/4 x 3-1/2

Ink:
   Tuxedo Black Memento

Markers:
   Lost Lagoon
   Hello Honey
   Mossy Meadow

Technique:
   Clear Block Stamping

Accessories:
   Clear Block "D"
   Black Brad
   Water Spritzer/Mister
   Adhesive

This is one of those techniques where no two cards will ever look exactly the same. 

Begin with a clean clear block. 

Color it with markers. I used 3 colors on mine. 

Spritz/mist a bit of water on the block.

Stamp the block onto your card. Let it dry.

Stamp your images and finish your card.

Do make note that you want to keep each color on the block separate from the other colors. When you apply water, they will begin to bleed onto each other. Some colors do not mix well and look like mud. Play a bit on scratch paper and have some fun. 

Thank you for dropping by here. Don't forget to follow me.

I appreciate your time and feedback.

HAPPY STAMPING!
