I stamp every day, even if it's just a little something. I pulled out a few things yesterday and began thinking I would just assemble a bit of a kit to have handy for the future. Turns out I kept going, and was inspired by the sketch at Freshly Made Sketches to turn it into a card.
Have a look!
The Pinkfresh Studio Beautiful Soul stamps and dies have been in my stash and were calling to be used since I'm so ready for spring. I paired the stencils with Altenew Rose Petal inks and loved the combination.
Then I added a smooshy bit of ink blending at the bottom of the card to keep in step with the sketch. And of course, a few sequins!
It was hard to photograph. Sometimes the simplest cards are the hardest. The colors IRL are lovely. The stamping was done with Watering Can (Archival Ink) which is softer than black and my preferred choice when using pastel colors.
That's all for me today! I am off for a walk in the sunshine. Hope your weekend is extra wonderful!
Be yourself
