"Thinking" With Pastels

Hi Everyone, Details for the Techniques Classes are almost finalised, and will be posted within the week. Today I thought I would show you another technique - "Popping Pastels". These cards are made using only the Stampin' Pastels and one ink pad - Versamark.


You can see the detail in the close-up below. This is a very simple, fun, and eye-catching technique.


Recipe:
Stamp Sets:- Tres Chic / Sincere Salutations
Ink:- Versamark / Cameo Coral / Taken With Teal
Cardstock:- Whisper White / Cameo Coral / Taken With Teal
Punches:- Scallop Edge / Corner Rounder / Boho Blossoms / 1/16" Circle
Accessories:- Pastels / Daubers / Brads / Ribbon / Dazzling Diamonds


The card below was designed by Leah, and is another using the same technique.


Even the subtle background is stamped with Versamark.



Recipe:
Stamp Sets:- Fresh Cuts
Ink:- Versamark
Cardstock:- Pretty In Pink / Certainly Celery / Chocolate Chip / Whisper White
Punches:- Scallop Edge / 1/16" Circle / Small Oval / Large Oval
Accessories:- Brads / Ribbon / Daubers / Pastels

Happy Stamping!
Tereesa.
