Bamboo and the Moon - Blue Knight Rubber Stamps

Hello. Today I have two cards created with the newly released Bamboo Border stamp from Blue Knight Rubber Stamps. This stamp set is part of the new July 2025 release. I created a video on my YouTube channel with details on how I made the cards featured on today's blog post:

I created my first card by first ink blending the background blue with ink, except for the moon, which I created with the medium circle from the Sun/Moon Stencil Set which I used as a mask. After ink blending the background, I splattered the panel with metallic pearl water color paint using a fan brush. I then removed the mask and used the stencil to ink blend the circle with light gray ink for the moon. I then placed the Bamboo Borders back-to-back and stamped them over top of the moon. I used a white gel pen to highlight the stamped image. The sentiment is from the Did You Know One Line Sentiments Stamp Set from Blue Knight. I trimmed 1/8" around the panel and then mounted the panel on a piece of black cardstock. To finish the card, I adhered the matted panel to a white A2 card base (4.25" x 5.5").

For my second card, I stamped the Bamboo Borders in green ink (Shady Lane by Versafine Clair) repeatedly across the 4.25" x 5.5" piece of green cardstock. I die cut that out with a stitched rectangle die. I then stamped the sentiment from Bamboo Borders onto a piece of cream-colored card stock. I matted the sentiment and the card panel with black card stock. Then I placed the matted sentiment left of center on the card panel. To finish the card, I adhered the matted panel to a white A2 card base (4.25" x 5.5").
