This is a fun way to create four different cards in a fast easy manner.

Measurements:

4 Basic White pieces cut to 5 1/4″ x 4″
4 colors of coordinating cardstock cut to
5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ scored at 4 1/4″
scrap Basic White cardstock
scrap Basic Black cardstock

Using Poppy Parade ink and Blending Brushes starting in the center of the Basic White cardstock and circle in an outward motion leaving more color in the center and making a gradient on the cardstock.

Repeat the gradient pattern using the
Blending Brushes in three more colors. Crushed Curry, Gorgeous Grape and Bermuda Bay are the other three colors used in this sample.
Using the Stamparatus, stamp in Tuxedo Black Memento ink the same stamped pattern on all four pieces of Basic White cardstock that was colored with Blending Brushes.
One of the advantages of using the Stamparatus positioning tool is that you can stamp over and over and achieve the exact same images and go over the same image if they are not dark enough.
FUN TIP: Using the Tailored Tag Punch – punch out in Basic White and Basic Black.
Cut the Basic Black punch out in half and adhere to the back of the white punch out.

Use the Tailored Tag Punch for the sentiment piece.

Cut the colored and stamped Basic White cardstocks in quarters.

Shuffle the colors so that there are four sets with one of each color.

Add Matte Black Dots to the sentiment piece to finish off the cards.
This is a fun way to make multiple cards in a fast and easy way.

Hope this inspires you to create your own art – one stamp at a time.

Happy Stampin’
