Hello Friends, I am just popping in today to share this fun card that I enjoyed creating so much! Papertrey Ink has some super fun geometric stamps that I used on my background. The “Big Hello” takes stamping a background to a new level. Love how you can die cut one word and your done! bam! love that. Well….with that said I did die cut the “Hello” five times and glued them all together with glossy accents but, it still counts for one word 🙂
I colored my stamped background with copics and it was quick without any shading. The purple is textured because I used a rag with some “Various Ink” The most fun was adding doodles, lines and white dots with this gel pen to the background. Ah!! I just remembered that Simon Says stamp has their copics 25% OFF!! Super deal. CLICK HERE FOR THE COPIC PAGE.
If you have ever purchased duplicate markers this book is a must have and it’s on sale too. I use all my time to select my colors for a project like todays. If you don’t want a big bottle of “Various Ink” this is the same thing but, smaller… Ok..I am off…. Have a great weekend and your visit today was appreciated! Hugs, Kathy
