Stamping techniques with bleach – a stamping technique that creates a wow!

Here are three ways to use it! (The video at the end will show it all.)

Make a “bleach ink pad” by folding a few paper towels on a plate. Add bleach.

Put your stamp right on this ink pad and then onto your card stock.

Use an acrylic block to stamp into the bleach and then on your card stock.

Use a paint brush, blender pen or old blender pen to paint inside of an embossed image.

Different colors of card stock will give you different results so enjoy experimenting.

Add color to the bleached parts of the image with markers, blender or any other coloring.

Flicking your brush will add the spots on the card.

Make the most of your Designer Series Papers – eleven cards with no waste – with this easy One Sheet Double Wonder Template.

Eleven cards from one 12″ x 12″ piece of Designer Series Paper??? Actually, for this Double Wonder Template, we are using two half sheets –  two 6″ x 12″ pieces of Forever Greenery Designer Series Paper … so we have four different patterns of paper to choose from instead of just two!

This template was shared by Shannon West, one of the DDMs at Stampin’ Up! It works great with any paper. Here is the template.

You will end up with four cards like these:

This Fun Fold Card only looks complicated!!!

All you need is your choice of Designers Series Paper. No adhesive is even requires.

I used the Ornate Garden Designer Series Paper, the Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper and the Mosiac Mood Designer Series Paper.

It can even be turned into a little gift pouch!

To make, take an 11″ x 11″ square of Designer Series Paper and fold in half to make a triangle shape.

Score at 4-1/4″ from the fold line.

Turn 90 degrees and score at 3-1/4″ and 5-1/2″. Do the same on the other side.

Cut out the triangles where the two scored lines intersect so it looks like the photo.

Fold over one of the side and open the triangle on the edge of the paper. Turn that into a square.

Do the same with the other side.

Tuck the top front flap into the square and fold the other flap down in the back.

Isn’t it fun to see two sides of the paper together???

Finish the card as desired.

This short video below will show the entire process step by step, but first, I have a question for you!

How would you like to see lots more cards using this fold? Did you know I offer online classes where we meet three times to learn some new things …. and then members are encouraged to post their projects? That way, we all learn together!

I believe we are all more creative together than we are individually! You are invited to join the fun!

You can purchase any of these classes any time – the link for this one is: Use Your Stash/Fun Folds with DSP.

A favorite fun fold for all ages – Explosion Cards! And they are easy to make (and to remember how to make) when you hear this story. All it takes is a square piece of Designer Series Paper!

This size uses a 6″ x 6″ piece of Designer Series Paper. This size lets you use your 6″ square paper packs. You also will four of these from one 12″ x 12″ sheet.

The card base is 3-1/4″ x 6-1/2″. Score at 3-1/4″. I mail these in a regular size envelope.

Want a regular full-size card? Then use an 8″ square piece of Designer Series Paper.

How about the cutest little tag ever? Start with a 4″ x 4″ piece of Designer Series Paper and this is what you will get.

The card base is 2-1/2″ x 5″, scored at 2-1/2″ and folded.

A year ago I made a blog post about this fun fold and wrote out the story – you can see that right here.

This video will share the story and all of the details.

Explosion Cards Easiest Way Ever!

I have done this fun fold card for a long time. This one goes back three years and I used computer paper for the inside. One more from four years ago.

Did you know that members in my free facebook group, the Back Porch Stampers, are posting their versions? You get to see lots of other ideas besides the one in the video. Come on over and request to join.
