For today's card, I wanted to challenge myself a bit. I decided to use every stamp from a particular clear stamp set. I have never done that before. I have always used a few stamps from a stamp set at a time.
Stamp set used- CL882 Doodle Flowers
To make the card, I used my MISTI stamp positioner and stamped all the butterflies, leaves, and flowers onto black cardstock. I let the ink completely dry and then colored the elements with an assortment of Distress Crayons and Gelatos. As you can see, it is a bit underwhelming:
The magic really happens when you put your paper back in the MISTI and stamp it again with white ink. This is the end result:
It took quite a while for the white ink to dry on top of the crayons and Gelatos, but it did eventually dry.

Nice technique. Can't wait to try it!
ReplyDeleteThe MISTI is perfect for this kind of card isn't it? I love the challenge of using every stamp in a set. I will try that challenge myself. It will put some in on some stamps that might be neglected. Thanks for the inspiration! kReN@afourthlife.blogspot.com
