Our new challenge at STAMPING SENSATIONS is
STAMP OF THE MOMENT!
So share with us one of your favourite stamps at the minute!
We have a gorgeous mixed media prize up for grabs this month
so be sure and get your stamped projects in!
I have to admit I have had this beautiful stamp sitting for a long time
and never inked it up!
It's a Penny Black Slapstick stamp called Sunbursts.
Then I sprayed with water and allowed it to really soak into the paper.
When it started to bubble up I mopped it up with a baby wipe.
Next I stamped the image in memento black, a few times,
using my stamping board.
The edges were torn and I then stamped the sentiment.
When sticking to my black base card I decided to go with a
jaunty angle, forgetting I had stamped the sentiment for a
straight angle! Doh!
So I re-stamped the sentiment from an old kit,
cut it out with a little white edge and covered my previous one.
I added some white sequins and finished by stamping
out a tiny butterfly onto a bit of the waste from my torn card.
The centres of the flowers were coloured using a
spectrum noir sparkle pen.
I hope you all get time to join us this month!
Be sure and pop over to the blog for lots of inspiration
from the design team.

Hi Pinky I absolutely love this wonderful creation the stamp you have used really stands out, I read the techniques you used to create the background and I take my hat off to you because this is one thing I really cannot do, I suppose we all have our strengths and weaknesses creating scenes and backgrounds is my weakness for sure, excellent card
