I'm still working on card designs for Designs by Ryn and still trying out the "Stamp Kissing" technique that I saw on Miranda's blog. There are so many things to try and not enough time !
So here is a card that the background was created by having stamps "Kiss". Such a cute name for a stamping technique ! But actually that's what it is ! Two stamps "kiss" either with ink on both or just one. I've always been in love with "Smooch" Inks and now it's "Stamp kissing"....... my husband doesn't mind :) x
For this card I used the Solid Cover a Card by Impression Obsession (CC084). I inked it up using a brayer and Colour Box Pigment Ink - Harbour. Then I used Ryn's African Daisy stamp (CM-F1) which seemed to work for this technique as it has bold lines. The flower stamp made contact with the cover a card stamp with the ink, which takes ink off and then I stamped it on white card stock ! I use IO's Mega Mount for all their Cover a Card stamps... love them !
The background turned out looking Batik as I recall Miranda saying on her Blog. After I stamp-kissed the background I used clear embossing power to add texture. I stamped the flower a few more times and embossed with Silver and painted a little with TomBow markers, hard to see the shading in the photo. The embossing folder used for the embossing is Daisy & Swirl CTFD3043 by Crafts-Too. A little bling was added for the final touch.
Ok that's all for this afternoon !
Thanks for stopping by and have a great weekend !
