I have been playing with sweet as a peach bundle lately. When you get a new set do you want to try and use all the stamps and dies? That is what I love to do, challenge myself to use them all. For this card I stamped several of the images and then used the dies to cut them out. I was trying to stamp off the image in the middle to make it look like it was in the background. Not really sure that I accomplished that but I do like the way it turned out. If you are not familiar with "stamping off" that means you ink your stamp up and then stamp it twice or even three times without reinking. It really give you a varied look in your ink colors.
For the peaches and the flowers I used a combo of pale papaya and calypso coral ink and applied with a sponge dauber. I mounted it all on basic white card stock that I ran through with my stitched with whimsy This adds such fun texture!
Finished it all off with stamping the sentiment in early espresso ink. This stamp bundle has so many fun items in it, I still have yet to use them all. Back to the drawing board!
Don't forget to order your paper pumpkin!
