Today I am featuring a card I designed using the new Inventor 8 Stampers Anonymous stamps. I always love the grunge looks I see with these stamps but wanted to see if they would work in my favorite colorway, rainbow.
To create this card, I stamped the fan stamp onto Distress Watercolor Cardstock and embossed it with clear embossing powder. The detail on this stamp is just beautiful. I watercolored each of the inside panels of the fan with Distress Ink that I had put down on my glass mat and picked up with a Detailer water brush.
Once the colors were dry in the center of the fan, I stamped it again on some masking paper, and masked off the circular portion of the fan. When that was done I went over the entire panel with Pumice Stone Distress Ink and gave the card a light spritz with my Distress Sprayer. The masking keeps the colors on the inside nice and bright. I also took a paintbrush and VERY CAREFULLY flicked the corresponding color of ink around the outside of the fan so it looked like it was blowing the color right out. The colors look super vivid on top of that Pumice Stone background!
When that was dry (and I think the most important step is patience and letting the panel dry fully before messing with it) I removed the mask paper. I love the results of this card and giving it that unexpected twist of rainbow! I hope you have enjoyed this card, and the full list of supplies used is at the bottom of the post. The next stop on the hop is the absolutely amazing Debi Adams ...please hop on over as I am sure you are in for a treat!

I never would’ve thought of this use of color with the stamp. I love the way it appears the color is spraying out from the blade. Quite creative. Thank you for sharing.
Posted by: Phoebe pereda | February 05, 2019 at 11:30 AM
This card is amazing...I love that you turned the fan into a colour wheel...and the trick to mask it and give it a coat of Pumice stone is just brilliant! Hugs! Simona

Terrific creativity, Cheiron . Loving 'the brights' and how you have splattered the colours to look like they are being blown about by the fan . Great idea that adds wonderful movement the stamped panel.

I have a fan just like the one depicted on the stamp, it's pitch black and about 12" tall and belonged to my grandmother. How clever to turn the image into a color wheel and how brave you are--I never have the guts to "flick."
Posted by: Beulah Bee | February 05, 2019 at 01:48 PM
Ok anything rainbow calls my name! This is just gorgeous. You took an industrial piece and added the rainbow. Love it.

Very cool card. Making the paint spatters so it looks like the fan is spraying out color was so creative!
Posted by: Cindy | February 05, 2019 at 05:25 PM
Hi Cherion, I love how you took one of Tim's stamps from the inventor set and made it your own style, using bright colours. Just makes the image pop! LOVE!!!
Posted by: Christina Sedor | February 05, 2019 at 06:00 PM
The "blowing" colors are very very cool! Really clever. And yes, for me the hardest part is stepping away from the project and being patient! Thanks for sharing
Posted by: Kathleen | February 05, 2019 at 06:13 PM
Cheiron, seeing your colorful creations is always a highlight of my day, and this card was spot on. I love seeing the inventor stamps in a contemporary framework. Your addition of color to the central portion and then overlaying with pumice stone to draw out the dimensions was genius. Thanks for sharing this awesome card.
Posted by: Ann b | February 05, 2019 at 06:36 PM
