Graphic Stamps
I like this class. I've never been any good at trying to figure out what to do with any graphic type stamps. I chose to work with Laura Bassen's idea and found the perfect stamp. This card is pretty much a case of her card in class except for the colours and the actual stamp used. But it has prompted me to go and look at some other graphic stamps I might have in my stash.
Here is what I made:
Paper: Neenah White Cardstock
Ink: CTMH Dye ink (Hollyhock; Blush; Baby Pink); Versafine Onyx Black
Stamps: Modern Basics (PTI); Keep It Simple Birthday stamp set (PTI)
Other: Brad (Doodlebug Design Inc.); dimensional strips; clear embossing powder
I wanted to make a birthday card for a little 10 year old girl, it's coming up later this month, so I decided to use this class to motivate me to make it.
I cut out the "wings" at the back of the brad as I just wanted to use the little flower without piercing the card, I am always worried that it will tear. I then filled the back of it with adhesive dots in order to adhere it to the card. I like how it turned out. I also heat embossed the sentiment.
Enjoy your day!

Brenda, this is one of my all-time favs of yours! So bright and cheery. I love the layered colors and the way you used the white space. A winner!
