Rubbernecker is thrilled to announce Color Fuse, a brand new progressive line of ink with graduated color groupings designed to work together. Rubbernecker is releasing the first four of the twelve color sets in the line – Yellow, Pink, Blue and Green. These inks works well for all your water-based art projects and was created especially for layered stamping, utilizing a progressive color value in each hue. Rubbernecker has created a new line of floral layered stamp sets that work perfectly with the new inks and I know you will want to check them out.

For my project today I used the new It’s Spring Time layered stamp set.

The Layered Flowers and Foliage
- Secure a piece of white cardstock in the MISTI.
- Place the first layering stamp in place, apply the lightest color ink to the stamp and stamp it on the cardstock.
- Continue layering the flower by using the next three stamps and graduated ink colors. Note: I found this to be an easy process using the directions that are provided in the stamp set packing.

- I stamped the flowers three times, two large and one small.
- I fussy cut two of the flowers and foliage so I could layer them on the card base to add dimension.
The Frame Layer
- Use the Nested Scallop Rectangle set to cut the bright pink layer.
- Stamp the sentiment on the flower layer using Versafine Clair Nocturne ink.
- Apply strips of mounting tape to the back of the flower layer and attach it to the scalloped layer.
- Apply ATG adhesive to the back of the scalloped layer and attach it to the card base.
- Apply pieces of mounting tape to the back of the fussy cut flowers and attach them to the card base.
- Tuck the foliage pieces under the flowers and attach with glossy accents.

Boy did I have fun playing with the new Color Fuse inks and layering stamps. I hope you will hop over to check the whole release. Thank you for coming by today and I hope you are having a good week.

This is simple but very beautiful!
I love the detail and depth that layered stamping delivers. Excited by these Color Fuse collections.
I have always loved the look of layering stamps, but I have such a hard time layering them up. Yours are just gorgeous!
