AESTAMPS A LATTE

 Happy Memorial weekend and happy Sunday! Today, starts another new challenge at Sunday Stamps! and here's what I made using the adorable Sweet Songbirds Bundle. Aren't these little birdies just so cute?!  I used my Stamparatus (again) to add different hues of color to each bird. For the small bird, I stamped in full strength using Daffodil Delight ink followed by sponging in Soft Suede ink and then one more time using a little bit of Memento Black ink. For the larger birder, I did the same stamping technique except I used Sweet Sorbet ink followed by  Soft Suede ink and then Memento Black ink. So fun, and so easy to do with a Stamparatus! My birds are sitting on hand cut Soft Suede inked branches. I added some Garden Green die cut leaves from the Full Basket Dies. My card design follows the new challenge at Sunday Stamps! by Heidi.

Sadly, a friend of my husband recently passed away after battling cancer for over 14 months.  I made this card to send to his wife.  To create my card, I first die cut a bunch of blank Basic White flowers and made a die cut template for stamping the flowers in different colors using my Stamparatus.   Don't forget about this wonderful tool. It is extremely helpful and especially when you are mass producing. :) To create my card, I first picked out my DSP and the colors I wanted to pair it with. I ended up with a gold and Petal Pink design from the T exture Chic 12" x 12" DSP and used the following ink colors: Petal Pink, Crushed Curry, Fresh Freesia, Soft Succulent and Early Espresso. I stamped a few leaf image...
