3) Then Cut the whole panel with Peek-a-boo Rectangular stitched die !!

4) Cut the word Celebrate in gold using September released Celebrate Word Die from Peek-a-boo Designs. Also added a heat embossed sentiment from Peek-a-boo Happy Deepawali Stamp set below this word to complete the greeting !!

5) Arranged  everything on a black card stock as a base and its finish !!

6) I just love this stamp set as it is so opt for our Indian festivals !!

Peek-A-Tute Friday : Black Magic Technique !!

Hi Friends...how you all are doing ?? Its Vijaylaxmi Siyal and sharing a very fun technique with two variations !!

So today's tutorial is based on Black Magic Technique !!

This summer is already very hot & killing us with the high temperature ..so i have one cool card too for you guys at the end of the post..but before that see my Black Magic .. ;p ..LOL.. Just kidding ;p

So now come back to the tutorial...here it is step - by - step --

1) Black Magic Technique With Emboss Resist & Black Ink -

Steps -

1) I used the following supplies for this technique -

- PABD Black Card Stock 

- PABD Swirly Lines BG Stamp

- PABD Bold Hugs 'n' Love Stamp Set

- PABD Acrylic Block 4*6"

- 3-4 Distress Inks

- Clear Embossing Powder

- Versa-Fine Watermark Ink

- Heat Gun

- Violet CS for the base.

For this card i took a white cs of 4*4 " ...Distressed it with 3-4 colors of DI ...!!

 

2) Then i Took PADB Swirly Line BG Stamp & Using PABD Acryilic Block, Stamp it on the colored panel with Versa-fine Watermark Ink.

 3) Sprinkle Clear Embossing Powder & then Heat Set it !!

4) Now comes the fun part -- I took my Momento Dye Ink Pad & Rub that directly on the CS until it covered all the panel fully black ..!!

5) Then Using wet baby wipes i swipe off the Ink from the cs and there the magic happens..:) All the embossed area does not absorb the black ink and they came out clear and hence the color under them :)

Look how pretty the whole Background :)

5) I tried the same Technique with Versafine Onyx Black Ink & After wiping off the ink with baby wipe this was the result !! And i am not impressed with this one so chuck it..!! Versafine doesn't work for me :)

2) Black Magic Technique With White Pigment Ink & Pencil colors -

Steps -

1) I used the following supplies for this technique -

- PABD Black Card Stock 

- PABD Peonies Love Stamp set

- PABD Acrylic Block 2*3"

- Pencil Colors 

- Colorbox white Pigment ink

- White CS for the base.

2) Stamped the solid peony with white Pigment ink on Black CS from PABD Peonies Love Stamp.

 3) This is how it looks after stamping the all elements. 

4) Start coloring using pencil colors only when your white Ink  dries completely...i didn't wait for its complete dry so did a mess ;p But no worries you can use black pencil color to cover all silly mistakes ..magicccc ;p

 5) Heat embossed the sentiment From PABD Awesomeness Stamp in white in center ...!! Taddaa..we are done ...mat it on the card stock with Silver glitter stripes on both sides & some blings for extra touch !! 

I hope you enjoyed this Tutorial & Do try any of these technique but don't forget to share with us !!
