The Craft's Meow has another hop in store for you! It is our monthly designer hop, and this month we are featuring techniques. You should have arrived from the talented Jinny's Blog! An office chair in retro colors and retro patterns?... Sign me up please!
My featured technique is stamp kissing, and I love to use it on large silhouette images. So I grabbed the chair image from Welcome to the Office, inked it up with a luscious melon color and then "kissed" a red inked up pattern stamp from Retro Foundations right onto the chair stamp and then stamped the chair onto my card stock. I also wanted to change up the silhouette image a bit, so I outlined the image with a dark marker. I finished the one layer card with a stamped sentiment from Welcome to the Office and added some shadowing under the chair with an ink blending tool.
Your next stop on the hop is The Craft's Meow's newest design team member, Larissa! If you get lost along the way or want to find out more details, please stop by the The Craft's Meow blog for more details.
