Seth Apter – Stamps, Dies and Paints by Nikki Acton
00:00
I was lucky to
be asked to make a few samples with the new Seth Apter paints and stamps from
PaperArtsy so I thought I would share one of the designs with you today.
If you missed the details of the new release you can find it on my blog
including PaperArtsy’s release video.

The colours used
here are Key Lime, Terracotta, Buff and Midnight.
I took 2 sheets
of card and built up layers of paint – add one colour, don’t cover the card
completely, let dry and add another – building it up so all the colours show.
For one piece I started dark and for the other I started light – so they end up
slightly different although use the same colours. One piece formed the base of
the card and the other the square frame. I also created a third piece sponging
terracotta and then midnight – this is the yellow you can see on the die cuts
and central portion.
To create the
central square I stamped the square stamp from ESA03 and used a circle framelit
to cut out the middle. I then stamped the circle with words from ESA04 on the
terracotta coloured card to go underneath the square. I used the rest of this
card to cut some rectangles and squares using Spellbinders Robo Bar and Robo
Square dies.
I arranged them
all on the base panel and used foam pads to raise the central feature a little.
See you next
week!
