My guest today is the talented Piali Biwas of Touch of Creation. I "met" her when we were both designing for Some Odd Girl. Piali's cards are always beautifully put together with just the right embellishments and mix of paper and patterns. She rocks the beautiful textured layered cards as well as the "awww" so cute ones. I love her use of bright colours and her awesome stamping work. Today she shares a fabulous tutorial on clear block stamping and is hosting a challenge with a amazing prize for a lucky player! :)
Let's have a look at Piali's gallery! :)
Hello!!!
I am Piali and I'm super excited to be Yvonne's guest blogger here . I'm a SAHM to two adorable daughters, aged 10 & 6. They keep my life busy. We just moved to India from New Jersey (for next two years) for my hubby's job-project. I've been paper crafting & blogging for two years now... loving every moment of it. I love cardmaking. I like to try new techniques & styles . Today I shared a quick & easy technique , hope you all will like it and give it a go. I can't wait to see all your creations.
Thank you Yvonne for having me as your guest !
1. Gather your supplies...acrylic stamping block, ink and cardstock.
2.. Ink up your entire stamping block with distress ink (or any other inks).
3. Press inked block on the cardstock with even pressure.
4. Tada! Your block stamping background is ready!
Then just stamp any image you like within the block background (I like to use Momento Black ink.)
Isn't this such a cool technique? Ready to play along? Piali is offering this fabulous RAK for a lucky player! :)
Link your newly created projects using the block stamping technique via Inlinkz (located at the end of the post) by Friday October 7, 11.59 pm (GMT+8).
As always, please leave a little love for my guest Piali.
So good to see you here, Piali! I can't wait to get inky :)
