stampin up very vintage – Laura's Creative Corner

Every month I hold stamp club where the girls get to make 3 projects, with one card that is a technique. I was blessed to have completed all my techniques for the rest of this year! This month I found this awesome and popular Black Ice technique!

It’s so simple to make too! Just follow the instructions below:

Stamp your image onto Silver Foil paper with StazOn Black.
Take the StazOn and then drag up and down, and side to side. You just want some random streaks of black. The StazOn works best to prevent smearing.
Let it dry for a minute or two. Then take VersaMark and drag up and down & side to side.
Sprinkle Clear Embossing Powder on the whole thing and tap off excess.
Heat set the whole piece. It takes a little longer than the metallic embossing powders. The image will appear very crisp and deep black. Plus the Silver will really pop!

We used the hostess set Very Vintage for this card. We randomly stamped the vintage doily with Smoky Slate for a background. Then we ran the Basic Gray piece through the Big Shot using the Subtle Embossing Folder. Finished it with a sentiment and some ribbon in the back.

I hope you enjoyed this technique as much as we did! I may make one with the Beautiful Blizzard set next!

This card reminds me of the Cobalt Blue plates that my grandmother had showcased in her china cabinet! It is a simple, yet elegant card!

The catch is this is a Host set only! The set also has a lace doily, a detailed bee, and beautiful accents to add more visual effects on your project!

It features the new In Color 2018-2020 Blueberry Bushel and it’s coordinating DSP pack! If you are just starting out, this is a great card layout for you! All I used was one color ink, 2 cardstock colors, 1 stamp set, adhesive, and baker’s twine (optional). This is a go to layout for me when I am stumped for a quick card too! I can change it up a bit with colors, textures, images, and embellishments-and no one notices!

Here is a video to show how simple it is to create! The end has the item numbers too!
