WOW #20: Stamp Kiss a Design

I’ve said it before, and I mean it! I’m always learning from you. So I thought this month, I would share a few projects that made me say, “WOW!!” And so for today’s “Work It Out Wednesday” Lisa Johnson is going to teach you how to “kiss” a stamp. Sound exciting? It is!!

For this project, you will need a shape stamp (Lisa used a leaf stamp), a background design stamp, and the paper of your choice.

Step 1: Giving a kiss. This smaller leaf stamp, clean, was pressed onto one of the diamond images from Background Basics: Diamonds. The result is that the diamond image is transferred to the leaf.

Step 2: This is is another way to do this. This time place the background design on the leaf shaped stamp.

Here’s a photo of the two images she inked:

And here’s how they look on paper:

Gorgeous isn’t it?!! Here’s a completed project using these techniques:
