I really like this stamp with all its lovely details. I let the image be the main focus and shine - quite literally! I used my MISTI to stamp the image in the centre of a 4½" x 6¼" in Versamark and then I used sparkly embossing powders. On the inside, I cut mat layers to match the colour of the embossing powders, and on the white panels I stamped a simple greeting and added some stars - also to match the colour of the powders.
As these cards are all one layer, I'm submitting them to Inkspirational - INK#145 where it's designer's choice and they've picked One Layer Cards.
You've seen what I've made with this stamp, now visit Uniko to see more inspiring projects from the rest of the team. They've all made such gorgeous cards! Before I go, here's a quick reminder of the release schedule:

ReplyDeleteYou have really shown how good this stamp is for mass producing Christmas cards :) I love your festive and sparkly colour choices! Hugs Bev x
ReplyDeleteYou really showcase this stamp to perfection with all these colours ! Love them all but maybe a little preference for the red one ! Love red on white for Christmas ! xx
ReplyDeleteI love this card.
ReplyDeleteIf you are doing a lot of
cards, this would be great.
Change the color ever so often
and you aren't doing the same
thing over and over - boring.
thanks for sharing.
Gorgeous cards - I love the Block Party card - what a great way to mass produce cards but still have a different look to each. And the CAS look of your second card with the simple sentiment that stands front and center is so striking to me and so perfect!
ReplyDeleteHow lovely!
ReplyDeleteBack for a second helping of your gorgeous cards AND to say: Thank you for sharing these gems in the INKspirational gallery!
