Video: Ghost Stamping on Kraft + Giveaway!

Hello!

How about a video? :)

Ghost stamping is fantastic on light and dark kraft paper. Check it out…

The new stamp set from the Simon Says Stamp March Card Kit is perfect for fun techniques… such as ghost stamping. Ghost stamping is simple: stamp dye ink over white pigment ink for a great layered look…

For this card I used Desert Storm kraft cardstock. This is a light color and very smooth. Perfect for stamping…

This next card shows the same technique but on a darker kraft paper from Hero Arts. This is more like a typical paper bag color and has a bit more texture…

I really like both of the krafts – both are must-haves…

Supplies are below. For more information (and another giveaway), head to the Simon Says Stamp blog.

By the way, the winner of the You Got Mail class spot is Elaine Allen. I emailed you.


Giveaway time! Leave a comment here for your chance to win a Simon Says Stamp March Card Kit, which includes the stamp set I used above.
Giveaway closes Friday, 3/1 at 11:59pmEST. Good luck.

    So love kraft cardstock and to see a card that uses this famous cardstock always makes me smile big. I have never done this techique before and I am gonna try it for sure on kraft. I have done the bleaching technique before but not this ghost stamping. Thanks once again for being so gracious to always share your knowledge with us all. Your card is beautiful and so cheerful. Really reminds me of Spring and with 15 cm of snow lastnight and another 15 coming down today, I am ready to see the flowers spring up and the sun shine brightly. Thanks for reminding that it is just around the corner.

    Beautiful – love the effect! I love stamping on kraft so I’m definitely giving this a try!

    I really love the ghost stamping with the white pigment ink on the lighter kraft, and what a great tip to keep an eraser for the centers, very nice.
