Welcome to this week's challenge at
"Less is More", this week we are challenging you to use the stamp kissing technique. I found this a real challenge, it's not a technique I use and I struggled to find stamps in my stash to use. Looking forward to seeing how to get the best from this technique when the LIMettes get to grips with this challenge!
First card uses an Elusive Images stamp set for the stamp kissing. The
solid circles were inked with Memento Pear Tart and then overstamped
with flowers from the same set, inked with Memento Danube Blue. I cut
the circles out with stitched circles dies. Inked up a scrap with Pear
Tart and die cut a curvy Die-namics stem from it which I inset into navy
cardstock.
My second card uses a SU solid stamp called Flower Accent, inked with Memento Cantaloupe
and overstamped with a Paper Artsy script stamp and Memento Ladybug. I cut the flowers out by hand and added them to a circle embossed with a Cuttlebug
script folder, edged with Cantaloupe. I bought the sentiment a few
years back at the NEC, brand says Different Colors.Again, sentiment was cut out by hand (aren't we lucky to have so many dies available for stamps these days!).
kissed fabulously Anne and love your colour choices and layouts. Have a fun week Sarah x
