This is a bit different for me, for one it's yellow and orange... two colours I rarely use. and secondly it's not really my style. I had no intention of buying this stamp, it did nothing for me in the catalogue, but then I watched a video by Sarah Douglas (CEO of Stampin' Up! ) Well, I ended up buying it on the strength of her video. It's a funny stamp to use. You ink up the stamp and stamp it , then you turn the card 180 degrees, place it back in the exact same position and stamp again in a different colour.
I had quite a few goes with this stamp experimenting with different colour combinations.
For the first card I used Summer sun and Peekaboo ink pads.
For the second card the combo I chose was Almost Amethyst and Certainly Celery.
For my third card I used Fresh Freesia and Soft Sky ink pads.
I experimented with darker colours too but I wasn't to happy with the results. Too dark and sombre for a card to brighten somebody's day in my opinion. I think the lighter colours look best.
