Stamping Solid Images with Altenew

Happy Saturday to you, friends!

I hope you checked out yesterday's Altenew January 2017 new release blog hop. If you have not hopped yet, it is not too late to comment for a chance to win $30-50 Gift card to Altenew online store

I had SO much fun with these new stamps and of course,  I simply can't stop at just making one...

You can purchase this set:

I am especially partial to these solid images. Due to its size and design, there are so many fun techniques that you can do with them! For me, artichokes should have a tint of pinkish/purple on the inner layer.

Don't these artichoke photo have a choke-full of glorious colors!? 
 When I stamped this image, I didn't have Shades of Purple or Rose Petal.
I used the pink pad from Four Scoops . I think it kind of worked!

Yes to a video. Your artichoke looks natural. The sentiment you used is perfect. I think these veggie stamps will get many uses.

Your inking is dead on...that artichoke looks good enough to eat and I love how you added your own special touches to the embellishing. That is one fantastic sentiment...it's wonderful that you chose to ink it in two different colors.

Awesome inking on the artichokes.
