Kiss Stamping

Well it's a glorious day here but too cold to go out and as I received a new stamp in the post I thought it would be rude not to have a play.

It's a torn edged Heart Palette Stamp from Oak House Studio and as you can see from the images it's a solid palette stamp designed especially for Kiss Stamping. It's great fun and loads of different looks can be achieved. For the first set of three I used the nice juicy Colour Chemistry Ink Pads - Powder Blue and Forest Green.


Here the same Heart Palette has been kissed with the Mack Rose stamp inked with Forest Green.

On the hearts below I've used Orchid with a silver Walesby Flourish stamp, and Valentine Red with a gold Mack Rose stamp, plus some Inspirational Words.


Really the possibilities are endless - it's just great fun to get your stamps out and keep stamping and inking. If you're interested in learning more, Lynnda is teaching a Kiss Stamping class at Bishop Burton on February 11th - check out www.vip-stamping.co.uk/workshop-dates for more details.

What to do next to keep warm - well I'm thinking that heart would look good triple embossed with some glitter and micro beads added!!

Gold

Here's a tag for Hels Sunday Stamper challenge 188 with the theme Gold.


For the background I embossed the Oak House Studio Walesby Flourish stamp and then blended Bundled Sage Distress Ink over it. It's spritzed with gold perfect pearls and edged with Gold Dabber. The owl is an Elusive Images/Chocolate Baroque one stamped with gold dabber. The tag is just finished with a few flourishes, some ribbon and the phrase 'Spread Your Wings'.

I couldn't get the owl to show up very well but they are naturally quite shy!!

One Step at a Time

Only Monday and I'm posting my tag for Hels Sunday Stamper challenge 187 with the theme of TIME. Busy the rest of the week so thought I'd better get my act together...one step at a time!!


Well what else could I use but Tim's clock die for a Time Tag! The background is a mix of Aged Mahogany and Fired Brick Distress Stains spritzed with gold perfect pearls and edged with gold acrylic. The stamps are from Oak House Studio's Inspirational Words set.

Hope you like and thanks for looking!
