Stampin' Up! products used to make a pretty batik pattern card using Batik Boutique stamp set and Batik Dies

Batik Pattern

Today I am sharing a quirky batik pattern card made using the Batik Boutique stamp set and Batik Dies. I love the symmetry of the stamps in this set, so pretty.

The colours used in this project are:

 To recreate the pattern batik card, you will need:

Merry Merlot card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Polished Pink card – 5⅛” by 3¼” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 5” by 3⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – rounded upper left corner for the inside
Basic White card – 3” by 2”
Merry Merlot – 3” by 2
Polished Pink – 3” by 2
Basic White – ¼” strip

I began by stamping the outline of the larger shape in Merry Merlot ink randomly all over the 5” by 3⅛” panel of Basic White. The infill image was added in Polished Pink ink and the base part was stamped in Pale Papaya ink. Don’t these colours look lovely together? I used the trio of dotted circles, stamped in Merry Merlot ink to fill in some of the white space.

The stamped panel was added with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive to the Polished Pink panel. I wrapped a piece of Pale Papaya Open Weave Ribbon around the panel before adding it to the Merry Merlot card base using the same liquid glue.

Using the Batik Dies and my Mini Cut & Emboss Machine I die cut the solid shape from the small Basic White panel. I then die cut the detailed shape from the Merry Merlot and Polished Pink pieces.

The outline die cut was then glued to the Basic White die cut and the Polished Pink pieces glued into the negative space gaps using the paper-piecing technique. Such a pretty effect. The die cut piece was then added with Dimensionals over top of the ribbon.

The sentiment from the Sweet As A Peach stamp set was stamped onto the Basic White strip in Merry Merlot ink. I flagged the ends with scissors and added it to the card front with liquid glue.

I began by taking the largest plain circle from the Layering Circle dies and using it to cut out the middle of a large piece of scrap Whisper White. This piece was then placed over one of the Whisper White panels as a mask and Pool Party ink was applied with a sponge to the negative space. The mask was then removed.
