More messing about



Can't seem to settle to doing anything I should be doing and I've just been playing about with some more new stamps. I just got these enormous (A5 size) background stamps made by Do Crafts and also at an amazingly cheap price, trouble is that once again I'm finding it difficult to put anything on top of the background as I like it just as it is. I stamped the whole A5 stamp in black and clear embossed it, then coloured it with a wet wipe and memento cats eye ink pads,certainly the quickest blending technique I've ever used. Cut the stamped piece into three parts and used two of the pieces on this card, I can use the other third on another card hopefully. I saw these stamps and the technique on a You Tube by Scrapbooking Made Easy, the lady drives me up the wall and the video goes on for ever bu she does do some great techniques etc!  I'd like to enter my card into a couple of challenges

  3. I'm the same, I bought it a while back and can't think of what to do with it. Perhaps decoupage some of the prominent bits! Any tips for stamping it in one piece because it is huge?
