Please email me at [email protected] with your email information so that I can send you your gift card. Please use Tutorial Tuesday Winner as the subject of your email.

Welcome to the first tutorial in Heidi Blankenship's Watercolor Tutorial Series.
Today Heidi will be showing you how to use your distress inks and distress markers to create designer watercolor papers for the backgrounds of your cards.  If you are reading this email from a feedburner email you can see Heidi's Video by clicking here.

 

If you are familar with basic watercolors tools you can skip ahead to the first project at (timestamp 8:24 -Learn how to use Distress Ink Pads to create this fun Birthday Card). 

For the first technique I will show you how to create a watercolor effect using an acrylic stamp block and Distress Inks.  

Use painters tape or washi tape to hold the watercolor paper in place.

Apply Picked Raspberry ink to one corner, next apply Spiced Marmalade, then Squeezed Lemonade and finish with Ripe Persimmon.

Tip* If you get one of the other colors of ink on your ink pad you can use a baby wipe to remove the ink.

 Mist the acrylic block with water to activate the Distress Inks. Turn the acrylic block over so the ink side is face down and press the acrylic block on to the watercolor paper.  Make sure to press on the entire acrylic block for good coverage.  Remove the block. Lightly mist the paper with water to soften the lines and blend the watercolor.

 After the paper is totally dry stamp the Happy Birthday Sentiment from our September Release Set ---- Extra Grand Sentiments Clear Stamps to create this fun quick and easy Birthday Card.

 For the second technique  ( which you can find at timestamp 9:52 -learn how to use Distress Markers to create a watercolor designer paper). 

I am using a rectangle acrylic block and Distress Markers-Mowed Lawn, Tumbled Glass, Peacock Feathers, Faded Jeans, Chipped Sapphire to create a fun Halloween Background. To create this background I scribbled the markers on the block to apply the ink. 

Then go over the colors and pull them out to the edge of the block.  Next mist the block with water.  Turn the block over so the ink is face down and press the acrylic block on to the paper. Press down firm on the block to achieve a good coverage of ink.

Tip One: If you lift the block up a little and then put it back down a couple of times this will help to blend the inks a little more. 

Tip Two: Place a paper towel or baby wipe where the ink is pooled up and it will lift up the ink.

Scribble some of the Faded Jeans marker off to the side of the paper.  Add water and tap the watercolor brush on top of paper to make small splatter marks.  

Here you will see two different kinds of paint splatters.  Where the paper is still damp or a little wet the paint spatter will feather out and where the paper is dry there will be a crisp paint splatters. I wanted to have more of the crisp ink splatters so I heat set the watercolor with a heat tool and then added more of the ink splatters

To create my Halloween card with this background I used  Samantha Walker's Bootiful Cameos Clear Stamps - on sale for just $10.00 on the JustRite Website.

For the third technique  ( you can find it at timestamp 12:10- Distress Ink with layered water drops - for a Bokeh Look). I will show you how to achieve a really neat effect using the Distress Inks and layers of water drops. 

 

Use a heat tool to heat set the watercolor and dry the paper. Nexxt I am spraying some water in to my hand and then letting the drops of water fall on the paper. Let the water sit on top of the paper for a few seconds. 

Then take a paper towel and blot off the water.  Doing this will also remove some of the water color. 

Add another layer of water drops and blot the paper after a few seconds. Add one more layer of water drops and blot dry.

Having different sized water drops give the paper kind of a Bokeh Look.  We will be talking about Bokeh Techniques and creating Bokeh Cards in future videos.

To complete my card I used the Extra Grand Thinking of You Sentiment from our new September Release Set Extra Grand Sentiments Clear Stamps with a big wide piece of ribbon and some sequins.

For the Fourth Technique - (You can find at timestamp 15:57 - here I show you how to add a watermarked background stamp to your watercolor designer paper using Distress Markers).  I am using CL-02023 Quilted Circles Cling Background Stamp and Distress Inks-Shaded Lilac, Picked Raspberry, Peacock Feathers, Salty Ocean, and Seedless Preserves.  Add the inks directly to the board.  Add water to the paper --doing this helps the watercolors flow and blend better. Starting with the lightest color apply ink to the paper.

Keep adding the colors until you achieve the look you want.  For this technique it is best to have brite and bold colors.  Once all of the color has been applied heat set the paper with a heat tool.

I am using CL-02023 Quilted Circles Cling Background Stamp.  Mist the stamp with water and then turn it so it's facing down and stamp on to the paper.  Let the water sit for a few seconds. Blot the water off of the paper using a paper towel.  Doing this will remove the water and some of the watercolor too.  This is when you will start to see the stamped background image.

If you have some areas where you can't see the background image simply mist the background stamp and stamp it again.

To create my finished card I stamped the Thank You  Seniment from the Extra Grand Sentiments Clear Stamps and die cut it with Vintage Labels Nine Dies and then added a blue die cut layer using the next die up in the same die set.  Then I added a shear bow and some pearls.  

Let's take another look at the four different watercolor techniques.

Tutorial Tuesday - SVG Elegant Stationery Elements with Heidi Blankenship

Welcome to Tutorial Tuesday, today JustRite Papercraft Designer Heidi Blankenship is going to share with you a tutorial on how to use Amy Tedder's newest digital cut file SVG Elegant Stationery Elements with design elements from our Elegant Fan Elements Clear Stamp Set.

But before we get started we need to announce last week's Tutorial Tuesday Winner.....

Congratulations to Jan Garber you have won a $30.00 Gift Card to the JustRite Webstore. Scroll to the bottom of the post for your chance to win this week's Tutorial
Tuesday Giveaway.

Jan Garber wrote:

 

Great video!  Love the colors and embossing. I am currently sending out about 25 birthday cards a year, and many more than that for the holidays. I think my last list was up to nearly 100!

Please email me at [email protected] with your email information so that I can send you your gift card. Please use Tutorial Tuesday Winner as the subject of your email.

You can now purchase electronic gift cards for your friends and family from our website in a variety of denominations.  

 
If you are reading this from a feedburner  you can find Heidi's video here. 

 

Here are all the pieces I cut using the Silhouette Cameo and SVG files for the Elegant Stationery Elements.  The largest piece is the envelope and requires a 12 x 12 piece of paper to cut the file and needs to be a lighter weight cardstock.  The envelope has score lines on each side.  

The notecard also has score lines for folding and a decorative edge.

The SVG file also comes with a border element. You can use the border element o layer on the outside or inside edge of your card.  The last piece is an accent piece that you can layer on top of the card or on the envelope.  I created two stationery sets by cutting the pieces twice-once with solid colored cardstock and then with coordinating pattern paper.

The SVG file coordinates with Elegant Fan Elements Clear Stamp Set.

Here is the notecard that I designed for today's video.

To start fold the card base on the score line.  Run a bone folder along the edge to get a nice crisp fold. 

Next match up the border piece along the bottom.  Add adhesive and then trim off excess.

Use VersaMark ink to stamp the border along the bottom of the card.  The stamps coordinate and line up perfectly with the cut pieces.

Then add white embossing powder and heat set.

For the accent piece I used VersaMark ink to stamp the flourish and then white embossing powder and heat set. Add adhesive to the accent piece and attach it to the card front. Line up the center or the accent piece with the center of the stamped border image.

To adhere the lace trim and bows I used Tombow Mono Multi Liquid Glue.  Set the piece aside for a couple minutes to dry a little and become tacky. Once the adhesive on the lace has become a little tacky then add it to the top of the card front and added the bows too.   Trim off excess lace and the ribbon ends on the bows.

To finish off the card and envelope I added some flowers, sequins and pearls.

 

Here is a picture of the envelope I created with the Envelope SVG.

 Here is what the envelope cut file looks like.....

Using VersaMark ink stamp the flourish on all four corners of the envelope add white embossing powder and heat set.

Fold the envelope flaps on the score lines on all four sides.  Use a bone folder for a nice crisp edge.

To finish off the envelope I added some flowers, sequins and pearls.  For the envelope I created a ribbon belly band that can be removed to open and close the card--just simply slide it off.
