Green Thumb Stamps

More from the Green Thumb Stamp set by Papertrey Ink,

The plant pot were inked in 2 colours I used a yellow chalk ink first then rocked a brown chalk ink over the edges to give some depth to the image the background of the card was made by inking stamps with Versamark whick gives a watermark effect.

Green Thumb

The sun was shining and strawberry's always remind me of summer so out came the Green Thumb stamp set by Papertrey Ink, bright red ribbon and card stock Brilliance Rocket Red ink and I sat down and started stamping, the cherries where fun to create, I added Ranger glossy accents to the cherries to give them dimension and shine.

You can see from this shot that I added Ranger glossy accents to the card to highlight water droplets.

Hollywood Gals

Marilyn

In the next two cards I used photo stamps by The Stampsmith I find that using a brayer to apply the ink to the stamp the best way to ink these up as it gives an even coverage, I never get good results by applying the ink pad directly to the stamp.

The Dress Stamp was a bargain it was an ex-demo stamp it is made by

Inkadinkado I stamped this in archival ink and coloured using the Prisma pencils

Bling..

Another photostamp, this one is great for adding a bit of sparkle to her jewelry it gives the card that glitzy look.

I added a matching flower made using my faithful pear punch

Bling is the name of this stamp from The Stampsmith but who exactly is she? what's her name? I know the face and I love the image but can I put a name to her....nope!

Beautiful Blooms

This is another card that started out as testing some stamps, I love the leaves in the Beautiful Blooms set by PTI, I also like the fact that they come with a few different overlay stamps that can also be used on their own too.

I started by stamping the leaves in different direction from each of the corners of the card then used the dotted overlay stamp in a darker shade of the green to highlight the leaves. I then started adding the blooms by stamping the solid shape in lemon chalk ink then added the ouline blooms in a perlescent orange shade.

I made a focal point by stamping the largest of the blooms on a seperate piece of white card stock and added the individual leaves around it, I then added glossy accents to the bloom and matted and layered onto white and matching green card tying a lemon grosgrain ribbon between the layers.
