I cut a large circle with one of my Grand Caliburs (this is about 5 1/4 inches in diameter, so it will fit into a regular envelope). Sponged with distress inks, Stamps of Life 'seed' and sentiment
I used an even bigger circle, folded it in half and then cut to make this juicy piece.
Then I masked onto a white cardbase and while looking for a 'sweet' sentiment, came across this alphabet:
(Lots of Dots by My Stamp Box) and decided to half-stamp in each colour - I like the effect!
I think I'm done now!
Wow - busy day. My favourite is the last one, love the 2 colour idea. Jenny
ReplyDeleteOh my! These are so clever and bright and happy and summery. And here's me thinking I don't have any "sweet" stamps; what will I do?
ReplyDeleteArdyth, These are adorable! You are so clever. I love the half and quarter watermelons with the awesome shading. Very sweet! LOL. Thanks for playing the OLW challenge this week.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh these are all adorable!
