Hi and welcome to my blog. Here is another fun way to color your stamps! This technique is called Rock N Roll. This is an old technique, but gives beautiful results. Take solid stamps and stamp the entire stamp on your stamp pad that is a lighter color of ink. Next turn your stamp around on the edges on a darker color of ink and then stamp on your card stock. For example I stamped the pink flower using a pink ink pad and then rolled the edges around on a red ink pad. You can see the darker color edges on all the flowers on my card. This gives the flowers a little more depth than just stamping with one color. I stamped on glossy card stock for this card.

I forgot all about that technique, such pretty flowers to use it with, and I like how your sentiment goes in a curve like your flowers!
