Below is a card that my girlfriend and I did one Friday after noon last month. The idea came from my favorit craft magazine "Craft Stamper" May addition.
You take a sheet of white card and strategically place blocks of colour on the card, you then cut circles of masking film and place over the areas you want to show through, you then cover the whole of the card with black Gesso, once dry you peel off the masking and there you have your colour. I stamped the bird image onto the colour before I did the Gesso.
The swirls and saying are done with SU craft Whisper White and the interesting thing here is that the craft ink is reflecting the colours beneith the gesso, it's most noticable on the little swirl in the middle at the top.
The greeting is a Unity stamp the circles in the colour areas are different size caps found in the kitchen and our craft kits.
Hope you have a go at this one it is great fun if not a little messy.
