Finger Printings by Barbara Phelps

Here's a simple technique : Finger Printings by Barbara Phelps from the United States. A simple technique that when used rightly gives great results. Well, if you have enjoyed Barbara's other cards on the previous four pages, then I'm sure you will love these two lovely creations by her.

Two beautiful cards! I'm sure anyone will love receiving these two beauties.

Barbara said that she used her fingers to create these cards. I will let her tell you in her own words.

Barbara : I am sending, Flora... two cards, which are very similar, and employ the same technique, in two separate scans. This first one's very light purple flowers; the second, pink flowers.

What's a bit different about the image on the cards is that neither floral image was created by using a rubber stamp. What I did was employ a "stamp" that has been attached to the end of my arm since I was born...my index finger. I pressed my index finger into dye ink and then pressed the inked finger onto cardstock. I even pressed my finger into yellow dye ink to create the flowers' centers. For the stems and leaves I simply freehand drew them with a marker.
