Collage stamping - one up!

Oh me, I do like to play! Inkadinkadoo has new stamps that I truly adore! And then the sentiments from Cloud 9 - everything just works together so well! And I decided to play! For this first card, I stamped and embossed glossy cardstock with clear EP, then swiped it through colorwash on my craft sheet.



and then I added black pen and white pen using doodling stencils:



And since I'm working on collage stamping, I wondered what you could do by collaging stamps using clear EP. Of course, it's just a tad more difficult, but I managed to pull it off! And the background is 3 layers of colorwash so it came out a whole lot darker - but used the same 3 colors as in the first card. What a difference!




And then I added white pen with the doodling templates. Just too easy to do!



Definitely a card class for San Diego! Can't wait! We are going to play so hard!!!

Practice playing

Same stamp lines as yesterday, same inks, but instead of a cuttlebug background, this is braille paper.



I used cut n' dry foam to bring in Stream, Peeled Paint and Fired Brick. Then a little Spiced Marmalade and Vintage Photo. You know, it's so true....it's good to play. And you must keep in practice!

Have you played today?

Playing with my new toys!

Isn't this just too cute?



The little girl and wagon are by Pink Persimmon the "Little Red Wagon" set. And the sentiment is from Cloud 9, Simple Thoughts - Happy Birthday. Background is a cuttlebug embossing folder and tea dye distress ink with the burnt edg technique on cream and brown paper.

I'll be teaching collage stamping on my next trip to San Diego - this is just a simple example.
