Lotus Blossom for You

One of the fun freebies in the Sale-A-Bration brochure is the "Lotus Blossom Stamp Set". It's a set that comes with 3 different stamps for the flower, to do 3 step stamping, right on top of each other. The idea is to use 3 different inks and automatically get some gorgeous shading as you stamp with each layer.   Here's my card and then I'll try to explain more about it!

The set comes with three different flower stamps, all in differing layers of ink saturation. I used three colors and stamped on top of each other from darkest to lightest:  Wisteria Wonder, Perfect Plum and Elegant Eggplant.   It also comes with two stem stamps so I used Garden Green and Wild Wasabi.  This was a really fun technique and the stamps have tabs on them to orient your stamping, i.e. always place the tab portion of the stamp at 12 o'clock.   The "for you"  is a framelit from the Mini Teat Bag framelit set, also available in the Occasions Catalog. 

If you want to see some of these products and techniques in real life, come to a class! These are low stress, fun and creative. You will come away with 3 cards  that you made yourself! The satisfaction and sense of achievement is huge! Check out my calendar for details or contact me with any questions. The classes are Friday morning at 9 a.m. and Saturday morning at 10 a.m.

Happy Stampin'!
