Part I in my mini series on Decorative Masks focused on the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/basic-pattern-decorative-masks-dots\/\" target=\"_blank\">Dot Mask<\/a>, and creating a textured background. In Part II, I covered the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/basic-pattern-decorative-masks-victorian\/\" target=\"_blank\">Victorian Mask<\/a> and the spritzing technique. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This post will cover my favorite, and the easiest technique, sponging! I think  you will soon discover all the wonderful possibilities the world of sponging can open up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sponging Technique<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I have been a huge fan of sponging since my very early days of stamping. There are currently two different options to sponge with in the Stampin&#8217; Up! catalog, Stampin&#8217; Sponges (item #141337) and Sponge Brayers (item #141714). These two items do the same job, but much differently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"787\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/0714201814-1.jpg?resize=800%2C787&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Stampin' Sponges and Sponge Brayers\" class=\"wp-image-1732\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/0714201814-1.jpg?resize=1024%2C1007&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/0714201814-1.jpg?resize=300%2C295&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/0714201814-1.jpg?resize=768%2C755&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/0714201814-1.jpg?resize=1536%2C1511&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/0714201814-1.jpg?w=1836&amp;ssl=1 1836w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/0714201814-1.jpg?w=1600&amp;ssl=1 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption>Sponges are some of my favorite things in the craft room! Just add ink.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Stampin&#8217; Sponges<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Why sponges? They are small enough to apply ink to the edges of any paper cut, and you have more dexterity in applying ink via the pressure of your own hand. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When I use a sponge, I dab it onto the ink pad, picking up as much or as little ink as I like. It is easy for me hold the paper I want to sponge and add ink at the same time. Reloading the sponge with additional ink is a breeze.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Sponge In Every Color<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Stampin&#8217; Sponges come as a set of 3. But these large rounds are not meant to be used as full circles. First, I cut each sponge in half. From there, each half is cut into thirds, and this creates 6 wedges of sponge all together from one round.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I like to designate a sponge wedge to every ink color individually. I never have to clean my sponge (by rinsing it with water and waiting for it to dry) or wonder what color I used it for last.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Using a label punch (mine is long retired but I like the consistency), I punch a coordinating piece of cardstock color. Once the label is folded in half, I use a sharpie to write the ink color name on it. Lastly, I staple it to the top of my sponge, leaving the large base open on the bottom. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">My Sponge Storage<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">How do I possibly store a sponge wedge for <em>every <\/em>color? I currently have 6 plastic bins (the kind used for beads or stitching thread) at my disposal. Once upon a time they were very organized by color families and easy to locate at a glance. Families have changed and grown, and I have some catching up to do in the organizing process, but this still works for me!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"770\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/0714201817-1.jpg?resize=800%2C770&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Stampin' Sponge storage system\" class=\"wp-image-1733\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/0714201817-1.jpg?resize=1024%2C986&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/0714201817-1.jpg?resize=300%2C289&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/0714201817-1.jpg?resize=768%2C740&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/0714201817-1.jpg?resize=1536%2C1480&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/0714201817-1.jpg?w=1802&amp;ssl=1 1802w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/0714201817-1.jpg?w=1600&amp;ssl=1 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption>Some prefer to keep sponges generic to reds, pinks, blues, greens etc, rather than having one designated for each specific ink color.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sponge Brayers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sponge Brayers took the place of the hard rubber brayer in<strong> <\/strong>2016<strong>. <\/strong>These brayers come in a set that contains 2 handles and 4 sponge heads. This makes it easy to change them out during a project. When I am done using the brayer, I run it under cold water to rinse out the ink. Next, I squeeze out the sponge, and let it finish air drying. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>FUN FACT: <\/strong>I have a cat that thinks my sponge brayer heads are edible. I have a sponge that is missing chunks out of it. Lesson learned, I keep them out of her reach now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To use the brayer, you need to &#8220;load&#8221; the sponge head with ink by rolling it repeatedly over the ink pad. This is a lot like loading a paint roller when you paint your walls. It is hard to tell how much ink is actually on the brayer at any given time. I find testing the ink saturation first is best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sponge brayers are meant to be used while the paper is flat on your work surface. This makes them perfect for use with the Basic Pattern Decorative Masks!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Set Up For Sponging Success<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I took advantage of a Tombow Removable Adhesive Tape Runner, and secured my cardstock to my graph paper. This kind of tape runner allows temporary holds, and is easily removed without tearing or residue. In fact, when I rub my finger across the removable adhesive, it crumbles away like pencil erasing. Only a very small amount is needed here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Next, I secured the Basic Pattern Decorative Mask Mosaic design in the exact position I wanted it to be. This time I used Painters Tape to hold the mask down. I made sure I did not cover my cardstock with the tape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"663\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/0707201433-1.jpg?resize=800%2C663&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Preparing the Basic Pattern Decorative Mask for sponging\" class=\"wp-image-1714\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/0707201433-1.jpg?resize=1024%2C849&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/0707201433-1.jpg?resize=300%2C249&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/0707201433-1.jpg?resize=768%2C637&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/0707201433-1.jpg?resize=1536%2C1274&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/0707201433-1.jpg?w=1836&amp;ssl=1 1836w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/0707201433-1.jpg?w=1600&amp;ssl=1 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now for the real fun, adding ink. I started with the lightest of my color choices, the Crushed Curry (yellow) and applied the ink via the brayer to the top third of my cardstock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After my sponge brayer was low on ink, I ran it across my paper to &#8220;faux clean&#8221; it. Then, I started the same process with the Pumpkin Pie (orange), overlapping the Crushed Curry just a bit to blend the two colors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lastly, I moved on to the Cajun Craze (rusty red). By overlapping the Pumpkin Pie, I was able to get some great gradient colors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">***It is important to note that moving from lighter to darker ink colors without cleaning or changing the sponge head is okay. <strong>Do not<\/strong> ever go dark to light in this manner, you will end up with muddy discolored ink pads!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"814\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/0707201436-1.jpg?resize=800%2C814&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Spongeed cardstcok usining Basic Pattern Decorative Masks\" class=\"wp-image-1715\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/0707201436-1.jpg?resize=1006%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 1006w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/0707201436-1.jpg?resize=295%2C300&amp;ssl=1 295w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/0707201436-1.jpg?resize=768%2C781&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/0707201436-1.jpg?resize=1510%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 1510w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/0707201436-1.jpg?w=1710&amp;ssl=1 1710w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/0707201436-1.jpg?w=1600&amp;ssl=1 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption>This is a great example of starting the sponging process well off the intended paper.

So, I turned to the stamp set Gather Together (item #150589, which is making a come back in the August-December 2020 Mini Catalog) and my favorite, the Forever Fern Bundle (item # 154094). Combined with a card base in Cinnamon Cider and an additional layer in Merry Merlot, this sponged piece was set up for success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"777\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/0712201401-1.jpg?resize=800%2C777&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Gather Together and Forever Fern Stamp Sets\" class=\"wp-image-1723\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/0712201401-1.jpg?resize=1024%2C995&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/0712201401-1.jpg?resize=300%2C292&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/0712201401-1.jpg?resize=768%2C746&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/0712201401-1.jpg?resize=1536%2C1492&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/0712201401-1.jpg?w=1836&amp;ssl=1 1836w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/themainestamper.com\/staging\/5082\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/0712201401-1.jpg?w=1600&amp;ssl=1 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I stamped the berry image from the Forever Fern Bundle in Cajun Craze Ink and die cut it with the coordinating die.
