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.

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!

Cheiron! I just love the way you look at things! To put your beautiful “rainbow touch” with something so vintage (and typically without color, really) made such a DELIGHTFUL image to see!!! Wonderful card...just a lot of fun!
