SYS2.Day 2

Hello! Here we are at Day 2 for Stretch Your Stamps 2 with Online Card Classes. What fun! Today we extended on what we learned yesterday with background stamps.

This card uses the same background stamp (Hero Arts--thank you, Lisa K!) I had yesterday but today's use was totally different. Jennifer McGuire provided a video that taught us this technique, so I gave it a try.

I inked my stamp with Perfect Medium and stamped it onto white cardstock. Then I used Perfect Pearls to get the color and the shimmer. The ribbon was from my stash, and the sentiment is from Stephanie Barnard's Stamps of Life.

I think this made a perfect Sympathy card with its peaceful shimmer. So glad I had a piece of ribbon to match!

Thank you for stopping by today. I appreciate your comments and visits very much, and I hope to see you again soon ~

  3. Super cool cards. Now tell me, can you take this class any time, with just the live feed a time certain? I love the look of your cards and would like to learn how, but don't want to be tied down to a specific day. You are really nailing these techniques. Love your eye for color and design!!!!
