OWH-Mothers Day


I made 21 cards with this Impresion Obsession stamp. I used Versafine black ink. All of the images were stamped on scraps of pattern paper. I got rid of a lot of scraps! I used only double sided paper scraps. I distressed the edges of the image with a Tim Holtz distressor and the paper needed to stand up to that without tearing. I posted 2 different colored cards here so you could see the difference between soft and bold colors

Hi Cora! I think I saw your butterfly cards on Facebook but I wanted to tell you again how pretty they are! That intricate stamp is amazing, and I love how you paired it with the strip of distressed paper. I've never used Versafine ink; what do you like about it? I also need to check out that Tim HOltz distressor. Thanks, also, for your nice comment on my blog about my coffee girl card. I hope you're playing in the Hoedown this week; do you have one of their other stamp;s or are there any other freebies you can use?

Great job on all of the Mother's Day cards, Cora! They are so nice! I do like stamping on patterned paper, too. Sometimes you don't think it will work and then you have such a great surprise! Thanks for keeping in touch at my blog, too.
