Stamping With Gelatos

Welcome to another Thursday here at the Great ImpressionsRubber Stamps blog!  It’s the fourth Thursday which means that I've got another tutorial up my sleeve!  This week we’ll be learning how to stamp using gelatos instead of ink.  It creates a lovely water color effect and is super easy to do!  So, without further ado, STAMPING WITH GELATOS!

Here’s what you’ll need~ 

• G341Dragonfly Bouquet
• D405 Just Me. Thinking of You.
• Gelatos (I’ll be using Lime, Lemon, and Cotton Candy.)
• Water spritzer
• Papers and embellishments to finish your card

 Here’s the card I’ve made with this technique~

Details~ 

And here’s the tutorial~

Thanks so much for stopping by to see my tutorial!  I hope you’re inspired to try this simple technique and that you’ll grab these beautiful images if you haven’t already!  Join me in three weeks for another fabulous technique—Creating a Frame with Nestabilities Dies!

Here’s what you’ll need for that technique~ 

• F370 A Cute Dog Lives Here stamp
• D370 Dear Old Friend stamp
• Set of Nestabilities dies
• Coloring tools
• Dimensional foam pieces
• Papers and embellishments to finish your card 

See you again next Thursday for another creation using these amazing stamps!  HUGS and happy stamping friends!
