Hello friends!
How are you?
I have the pleasure of playing with this stamp "Flower Lantern Cling Stamp" and thought I would share what I made with it!
This card may look rich and textured, but it is completely flat.
I really enjoy stamping images like this with Distress Oxide.
Why? With repeated stamping, you may get ink mixed and the image may appear brownish....
However, with Distress Oxide, the colors blend and they become one.
You may be able to see the shine from clear-embossing in the following photo.
I also mixed the embossing paste with Cracked Pistachio. That way, the stenciled corner look more cohesive with the stamped design.
I truly enjoy the process of making this card. Each step is gratifying and relaxing.
I hope that you are inspired to try out stamps and inks like this.
Now, speaking of Distress Oxide....
