Texture backgrounds using dye inks

Hello there, This is DT Priyadarshini here and am excited to share my new set of cards with everyone. For today, I have 3 cards with different backgrounds where I used items lying around at home to have some texture and details. I used bubble wrap, microfibre cloth and lace with some texture and details and used them as a stamp to create the background. For the cards, I used three stamp sets and one sentiment to go for all cards. Stamps set I used here are  Precious treasure ,  Bloom  and  Butterfly love .  Tubby Craft  has awesome  dye inks  that react with water which makes them perfect for watercolouring, inking, stenciling, stamping and more. These inks serve a lot of purpose and this post is all about how to stretch them and use them on other materials apart from stamps.  Card using Bubble wrap The first that popped in my mind when I thought about adding texture is bubble wrap. They work perfectly for any underwater card or just bac...

Sea shells - Mixed media canvas using tubby ink pads

 Hi there This is design team member Priyadarshini here with my first project this year. Before we start I would like to wish everyone a very Happy new year from Tubby team and me.  Tubby inks are so versatile that we can use them for mixed media projects too apart from ink blending, watercolouring. I love to experiment a lot and I decided to use Tubby ink pads and make a mixed media project. For this I used Tubby ink pads and stencils along with Gesso and texture paste.  I had fun making this project and below is a video tutorial and pictures.  I coated the canvas using white gesso and after it dried I stenciled the canvas using Scallop cloud and mixed media paste. I invertes this stencil, so I get a wave kind a design.  After this layer is dry, I used crackle paste and Crack it stencil  and let it dry. I started adding up embellishments like gauze,broken pieces of card,shell moulds and chippies I had in my stash.  For more texture, I added sand text...

Floral card and underwater scene card - - Dhruvika

 Hello Crafty Folks.. I hope you are having a great time with our latest October release and with so many inspirations.. My first card is a clean and simple floral card using the Tubby Craft Bloom Stamp. This is a beautiful stamp with an Iris flower and a bud.  Let's have a look at the card first.  For this card, I stamped the flowers on the water color paper and colored it using the water colors from my stash. After I was satisfied with the water coloring I fussy cut the image and kept it aside. Then I stamped the doodled vertical lines on a side folding note card measuring 4.25x 5.5 inches Neenah solar white  cardstock. To add a little drama I changed the green pigment to the lightest available in my stash to color the doodled leaves.  I splattered some watercolour using black and ripe plum water color on the background for the added interest. I then pasted the fussy cut flowers on the cardstock using the 3D foam tape. I gold heat embossed the sentiments from...

Hello Crafty Friends, Dhruvika Here!! I hope all of you are having a great time and enjoying the inspirations from other design team members. Today I am up on the Tubby Craft Channel sharing 3 different ways to use the small stamp sets that accompany a big stamp set. All the big stamp sets come along wit the small stamps which generally go neglected or are used as a filler. But why not make the most of all the elements of your stamp set and create different cards. So to begin with, I shall be using just one stamp called the Tubby Craft Bright Day Stamp set and would only be using the small stamps of this 4x6 inch stamp set. Yes, we are not going to use the bigger ones at all. My first card is a silhouette card that involves a lot of ink blending. So lets have a look at the card first. To create this card, I used Lemon Yellow, Tangy Orange and Light Pink Dye Ink pads from Tubby Craft and a 4.25x5.5 inch top folding white note card.  Using the blending brushes I started to ink blend...
