Stamping Without Black Ink  
   

By: Channin Pelletier

Hello crafty friends! It’s Channin here and today I’m creating a floral card with a little bit of a twist, no black ink! This card features several products from Pinkfresh Studio, namely the new Floral Trio stamp set, stencils and dies.

To create this card, I first stamped the main image from the Floral Trio Stamp Set in Persimmon onto white cardstock. I then ink blended over the image with the Floral Trio Stencils and several Pinkfresh Studio inks.

For the first stencil which is the base layer for the flowers, I ink blended with Apricot and Coral Reef. I layered the two colors to create a more peach-ish shade.

For stencil 2, the flower detail layer, I ink blended with Clementine and Passion Fruit. Once again I layered these inks to create a new shade.

For stencil 3, the base leaf layer, I ink blended with Aquamarine and a little Tidal Pond at the base of the leaves to create gradations. For the final stencil, the detail leaf layer, I ink blended with Tidal Pond

When I finished ink blending the flowers, I then die cut them out with the matching dies and set aside. Next, with the Simple Plaid Stencils I ink blended over a 4” x 5 1/2” panel of white cardstock with Fresh Pear ink. I then adhered the panel onto the front of an A2 top-folded white card base (4 1/4” x 11”; scored at 5 1/2”).

Next, I die cut some leaves out of white cardstock with the Leafy Branch Die. I then cut the branch down into smaller sections, positioned them behind my main floral image and then adhered the arrangement to the card front with foam adhesive. Lastly, I finished the card by stamping a sentiment from the Floral Trio Stamp Set in Persimmon

I hope you enjoyed my card. Thank you so much for stopping by!

Hello! I’m Channin Pelletier and I live in sunny Arizona with my husband and our two sweet daughters. I’m a long-time stamper and paper crafter. I actually started paper crafting back in junior high by carving my own stamps from erasers to make handmade cards and scrapbook pages. However, over the years, cardmaking has definitely become my favorite crafty hobby!  It’s difficult for me to nail down my style, I’m a bit of a chameleon! I love clean and simple designs, coloring flowers and critters, and even constructing interactive cards! But overall I love trying to come up with designs that are unique or unexpected!

I’d love it if you would check out my YouTube channel, BlogGallery, or follow me on Instagram!!
