Tonight I thought I would show you my first attempt at brayering. This is a technique I am still practising, and will be for some time! The cardstock is Stampin Up Pumpkin Pie, Inks are Stampin up Cameo Coral and Yoyo yellow, Stamp is Stampin up Bird on a branch, and the greeting is a new one from Kaisercraft from the After 5 range. I do love the brayering technique,I think though that I need to attend a class or two!Back to xmas cards tonight, the back is improving,and I can finally sit down. Til tomorrow….
hi love your card….what did you use to get the reeds at the bottom….i havent had much luck replicating
thanks
Hi rachael, thank you for visiting me . They way I got the reed effect was quite interesting – I just used the edge of my black ink pad and sort of swiped it over the paper – practise on some scrap first, but it is easy, and it does give a good effect.
Great ill give it a go! I tried it with a sponge but it really didn’t look great. Thanks for responding. Keep up the good work!
