WHITE STAMPING

  Kraft paper makes a great neutral base for many techniques, but none more so than this stark white colouring with simple black stamping. This is a minimalist style that doesn't need a lot of fluff to make it look good. Thanks to Andy Skinner for coming up with this style, and his stamps suit it perfectly, although other stamps work equally well. I added a little colour to the last one to see if it'd work, and yes, it does.

"Let things go"

"Cyanide"

"I don't care"

"Magic"

"Oldest thing"

"Math"

WHITE HIGHLIGHT EMBOSSING

 An easy technique that combines a few elements that, if chosen carefully, will work well together. Patterned paper is the base; this is then dry embossed with an embossing folder, which is then coated carefully with white pigment ink to bring out the design of the embossing folder. Lastly, an image or die-cuts and words are added to complete the look. The main criterion is choosing your patterned paper and embossing folder so they will both work together, with neither overpowering the other. 

"I do lie"


"Moister"


"Note to self"

"Hustle & grind"

"Full bloom"

"Endless possibilities"
