Inspired Events - TGIF Challenges #TGIFC131, Eclipse Technique

October 27, 2017

The Eclipse look is a very popular card making technique at the moment. I love the look of a little hidden word or element that pops out but may not be immediately noticeable. In the Eclipse technique, a layer of a project is cut with letters or shapes. Those letters or shapes are then mounted above the openings created by the cut out. I find this technique works really well when an all over stamp pattern is created on the base layer.  I used the 'congrats' word from the Sunshine Wishes thinlets to eclipse from the stamped background I created with the flowers from the Inspired Events stamp set. 

Want to see some more AMAZING projects using this fun technique? Check out the TGIF Challenges blog. You will really will be impressed with the projects shown.  Try it out! Give this technique a try and share your creation with us! I can't wait to see what you create. Happy stamping!

A white wedding card with a little black tie! This card is so much prettier in person. I had such a difficult time trying to photograph the white irridescent foil on the Basic White Cardstock. I used layers of white ribbons, vellum, cardstock, and foil to create this look. Card created for @stampinfancyfriday B&W challenge. BUFFALO CHECK HOT FOIL DIE FRAMED & FABULOUS HOT FOIL DIES #stampinup #frameandfabulous #blackandwhitecard #cardmaker #cardmaking
I’m not a blending brush expert. Ink blending takes patience, and time but when you stamp on top of it, you can hardly see the mistakes… ha! Spooky trick. I used a circle punch and post it note to create a simple mask and set to blending a moody night sky. Cards created using the ‘Oh My Fright’ stamp set for #gdp568 #ohmyfright #stampinup #cardmaker #cardmakingreels
Teal or purple?! Both are great for a spooky background. 

Colors used: 
Lost Lagoon and Pretty Peacock 
Fresh Freesia and Berry Burst

I can't decide if I have a favorite?  The greeting and bat images are from the 'Oh My Frights' Halloween stamp set

I used hot foil to create this card and a second card with the leftover negative foil from the hot foil die. Two for one! There’s something just so satisfying about peeling the foil away from the card stock. Foil is Light Pink. Foil die is called: GARDEN SILHOUETTE HOT FOIL DIE #stampinup #cardmaker #hotfoil #gardensilhouettehotfoildies
