Multi-coloured background stamping

This card has such a warm autumnal feel to it but at the same time makes me also think of Halloween. So if you want a Halloween colour scheme that isn’t the class purple black and orange, why not try this colour combo for today’s card. In today’s post, I’m showing you how to do multi-colour background stamping with the Light As A Feather Background stamp and it is such an easy technique to do. So have a look at all those background stamps you have in your stash and how many more cards you can make with this one technique!

How to do Multi-coloured background stamping

Start off by placing the Light As A Feather stamp set into your MISTI and removing the foam pad as this is a red rubber stamp set. Next, choose a selection of colours to use for this multi-colour background stamping technique. For this card, I used:

Next, take one colour of ink and apply ink to various areas of the stamp set but do not ink it up completely. Soften the edges of ink with either a blending brush or a wet wipe and then stamp onto a card panel. 

Repeat this process with the next colour of ink and stamp different areas of the background up. Keep repeating this with each colour of ink until your have stamped the whole background. 

Assembling the card

For the sentiment, heat emboss in gold a sentiment from the Give Thanks Stamp set. To colour the card, use the direct to paper method with Mandarin Spice ink and then fussy cut this out. 

In addition, stamp a smaller sentiment in Eucalyptus ink and foam mount the sentiments onto the front of the card. Lastly, embellish with a few sequins from Mystic Sequin Mix.
