Return of Spring

I found this background on Splitcoast stampers. I tried it with my Cricut. I wanted to try it again with my stamps. This time I smeared the daffodil on the block, then on the paper (regular white paper) then again with certainly celery in diffent spots. Since the craft ink remains wet for a while, it smeared the colors together. What a fun background. Can't wait to try it in more colors, and with the regular pads as well.

Hello, You Birdie

I was browsing around Spiltcoast Stampers and came across this technique, Stamped Acrylic Background . After the kids went home I had to do it.  It took me a couple times to get it down, at first I didn't get enough ink on the block.  I tried dabbing it on, that didn't work so well, then I just wipped the ink on.  That worked pretty well. I used the craft pads on glossy card stock.  It may have helped to read the tutorial but, I just looked at the pics!  ;) that's how I roll.
