Had some fun new stamps and some fun new papers. What else could I do but make a couple of fun new cards?!
Although I changed it up, I got the idea for this design at my local craft store. They had made a card using this stamp. I was totally sold and bought the stamp right up! lol Using the embossed resist technique, the image was clear embossed. Inks were sponged on, and the musical image was then stamped. Because of the clear embossing, any ink from the musical backgrounder was easy to wipe off from the leafy image. Stickles was applied over the clear embossing.
There was lots of sponging and inky fingers with the creation of this cowboy riding off into the sunset, too.
With all the beautiful designer papers now, it seems like it’s been awhile since I have created this “style” of card by making my own backgrounds and scenes. Had such fun getting inky!
