Make a Tropical Fish Card with Multicolored Stamping

July 18, 2026 by Heather Holbrook

Make a Tropical Fish Card with Multicolored Stamping

This fabulous Tropical Fish card from Justin is just bursting with so much color! On the base of his light blue card he stamped swirls and bubbles in an ombre of blue, adding sequins for some shimmer but the stars of the show are those amazing fish. Using a stamp positioning platform and clear stamps he used different colors of ink pads on each single stamp, blending with a small brush in between colors for a seamless gradient. You can use this technique on so many other types of solid stamp designs too, the possibilities are endless with this fun and simple technique.

Find a link to his quick how to tutorial video over on the Scrapbook and Cards Today blog.
