Out With the New and in With the Old #8

 Using my old wooden stamps has been fun. It seems like I am using something new because I hardly use these wooden stamps. Today I used an old hot air balloon stamp to make a male card. The background was made by randomly applying water colors across the card. Then I used some polymer stamps to lightly stamp over it. I dry embossed the right side of the card with a striped embossing folder for more interest. The arrows are some dimensional stickers.
I am entering this card into the As You Like It Challenge. The challenge is simple or fussy. I have a hard time doing simple cards because I love doing techniques and I love to fill up the empty space. So this card is fussy as most of mine are.


Wooden Stamp: Balloon - Inkadinkado
Saying: Just For Fun
Embossing Folder: Stripes - Cuttlebug
Arrow Stickers: Tim Holtz Idea-ology
Distress Inks: Ranger (watercolor background)

Thanks so much for stopping by. Have a great day!
