Description: | |
This will be a simple and fun swap using stamped images. I will leave both the stamp design and the size format (ATCs or greeting cards or postcards) sender's choice. Pick your format -- you can do ATCs, blank greeting cards for your partner to use (include envelopes), or blank postcards for your partner to use (mailed to your partner in an envelope). You will send two pieces in total to one partner Pick your rubber stamp(s) -- you may use one or multiple stamps but you need to make two stamped pieces that are exactly the same. Color your two pieces in 2 entirely different ways This is the main idea of the swap -- how different can you make the same stamped image appear? Tools for coloring can include chalks, watercolors, colored pencils, pens, smooch inks, alcohol inks, pearl powders. Techniques can include embossing, stippling, resists, bleaching, masking, etc. Have fun and play and you will see how versatile your stamps can be! Please include a short note telling your partner what you did! It can be short and simple. For example -- "On card #1 I stamped in black archival ink on glossy cardstock, heat embossed the lines, then colored the image with alcohol inks". Please PM me with an questions. |
