I love this cute kitty stamp from Penny Black. I have not used it in a long time, so I decided I would bring it out and make a card with it today, using patterned papers and and a butterfly stencil.
Today I am showing another card using an old wooden stamp. I love the artsy look of it. I used an old Kaleidacolor ink pad to smoosh color to make a background. I am surprised that the ink pad is still so juicy after about 15 years! I then patted the ink pad onto my stamp, spritzed it with water and stamped it on white cardstock.
I am really enjoying using my old wooden stamps! It seems like I am using something new since I haven't used my wooden stamps in ages. The flowers were stamped directly onto the patterned paper. I used an old technique where I tapped some inks onto the stamps, spritzed them with water and then stamped to make a watercolor effect. I stamped the jar onto a piece of acetate, fussy cut it and adhered it to the card.
