Distress oxide Valentine’s cards

Today I want to share cards I made for a Valentine’s card class. I’m using Distress oxide inks, gel press and RGSTUDIO360 stamps. I started by adding the ink to my gel press. I wanted a block look so I didn’t try to blend the colors. I spritzed with water and then pulled my initial print with vellum paper. I then took white cardstock, spritzed the gel press again and pulled a second print. I liked to light spotted print it gives.

 

I then cut the vellum page down to fit on the front of my card. I layered the vellum on white cardstock and then embossed hearts on the top. I added some twine and a sentiment using the following stamp sets: You Me and Yay Greetings. 

 

The last 2 cards we’re using thesecond print pulled on cardstock. I embossed with gold and used choose love and share the love stamp sets. I love how the gold pops on the background I made. I would love to show you and your friends how to make these cards. Reach out if your interested in hosting a class with some friends. You can purchase the stamps at RGStudio360.com.
