Not my usual style

But I like it all the same!!! Here is a card I did this month for tech class, it’s collage stamping. Which is basically layering of stamps on each other to make your own background paper giving it a vintage look.

I am rather happy with how it turned out even if I had to do it 3 times to make it that way! Luckily I had started prepping early and this was the first card off the starting block!

On the background I have used Enfrancias in Creamy Caramel, Baroque Motif swirl in Close to Cocoa, the Damask stamp out of Friends 24-7 in Choc Chip and then the flower out of Baroque Motif in Baja Breeze!
The Cardstock used is Kraft, Choc Chip, Baja Breeze and Very Vanilla.

See told you I’d be back sooner rather then later! Hopefully I can pop back in again with a little give away I’ve almost made it to 100 readers so I’m planning something special so watch this space!!

Speak soon

    Lovely card Steph. It’s always good to do something different and even better when it works out…. Might just have to case this one myself.

    Steph, GORGEOUS card. Collage is something I haven’t done before. Maybe I need to add this to “the list” which just seems to keep getting longer, lol. Thanks for sharing

    So sorry to leave a comment late but I’ve just found this card and I love it. Friends 24-7 is my fav at the moment and I just love what you’ve done with it. It’s almost shabby chic. Very nice.
