Well this card turned out better than I expected, well it's more the ink blending that turned out better than I expected actually and thank goodness for oxide inks which over-stamp beautifully on darker colours!! That swoosh of green really makes those colourful birds stand out and the circle frames die was a good investment too, much easier than positioning a single die four times through the big shot... too much room for error 😉
I used the mirror stamping technique to make one of the parrots face in the other direction, not had a lot of success with that technique in the past but the many 'stamp positioning platforms' on the market make that a lot easier!

Thanks for stopping by :)

ReplyDeleteLURVE your background and those colourful birds. Will certainly have a looky at the "reverse" stamping, something I've been reading about of late. Thanks for the link.
