I can’t pretend that stamping is my forte, it has to be very simple, quick and easy or I lose patience. But I have to admit to a terrible habit of buying stamps when I see a lovely design and then putting it in a drawer, where it is often forgotten for years! So I have set myself a little target to stamp more often so that I can say I have used at least some of my stamps.
I love mistletoe and this stamp is from Woodware designed by Francoise Read (FRH007 Tapestry Mistletoe),
All I have done is stamp it with black Stazeon, coloured it with an olive colour whisper pen and then washed over it with a water pen to dilute the colour a bit. I have used flat backed pearls for the berries, and a light dusting of Hero Arts hologram glitter to give it a frosty effect.
So simple but very, very effective. Love it!

ReplyDeleteI like it :) I'm the same with stamps - often avoid them
ReplyDeleteLovely simple card. What I did for my rubber stamps was to make a book that had all my rubber stamps stamped onto the (blank) pages to remind you what you've got. Works for me! :-)
