I ran two fantastic fun classes to showcase the many ways you can create beautiful cards using Stampin Up ® Pigment Sprinkles. Look at all the different cards we made below.
This beautiful card dandelion was one of my samples and uses White Embossing Powder and the Dandelion Wishes Stamp Set. I sprinkled the sprinkles, spritzed with water and left to dry naturally.
The cards below started their creation at the previous class. We used the Pigment Sprinkles on Fluid Watercolor paper and then sprayed the surface with ironing starch. On the left, we crinkled Glad Wrap and left the card to dry and on the right, we sat bubble wrap on the top, to create the tiny circles. These were left to dry for a week - overnight is enough but it was a week between classes and then we peeled the plastic away. The green background was run through the Stone Embossing Folder and decorated using the Tropical Chic stamp set, and the pink one used the Beautiful Day stamp set and Black Embossing Powder. The results were stunning and each card was different.
The next technique was to add salt crystals to the mix. Once the Pigment Sprinkles had been spritzed we added salt flakes and left the card to dry. The salt drew the water in and created the a variety of effects like those below.
Aren't the pineapples below delicious? We used strips of Shimmer White cardstock to sprinkle the lighter Pigment Sprinkles colours then spritzed. Once dry we used the 'In The Tropics' dies, to die cut these pretty pineapples. They both sit on the Coastal Weave 3D embossing folder.
The last project was inspired by Erica Cerwin, a U.S. demonstrator. We created a set of tags using the Scallop Circle punches, to create the large and small flowers including coloured centres and punch leaves.
Our class was a little overcrowded in the evening but so much fun. If you haven't tried Pigment Sprinkles they are great fun if you love to experiment and be arty. Give them a go!
