sale-a-bration fresh vintage

This is certainly not my favourite card but it does show the use of markers on stamps well.
For the novice stamper, this where you use  different coloured markers to ink up your stamp instead of a single colour ink pad.
Once you have coloured all the areas over your stamp with ink you then take a deep breath and huff all over your stamp   to re moisten the inks and print the image onto your card stock.
It does take a little longer  stamping this way but hey,  think of it this way..... there is NO  intricate colouring in to do Whoopie! I am not a love of colouring in.... I can't stay inside the lines. lol.

I used the beautiful Fresh Vintage stamp set for this card. This stamp set was a free set from Stampin' up ,during the Sale-a-bration period. Every customer  spending  £45  got a free set of stamps.
I used the Stamp and Write markers to colour in my stamp. Old olive grosgrain, Razzleberry, Pretty in pink  and Whisper white card stock.

For Allison

I bought my first Digital Stamps this week, only two to see if i like them, while these Sugar Nellie designs are absolutely beautiful. I am still not convinced they are the way to go. Both types of stamps have advantages and disadvantages.

With the digital you can re-size them which is fantastic, they don't take any storage space apart from on your pc. But my first thought is you can't heat emboss them, not that you would want to heat emboss a stamp of this style.

But other designs you may.

Anyway I use versamark ink pad and the Vintage vogue stamp set to stamp the top half of my card. A Martha Stewart punch for the lace edges, Stampin up's designer paper, and a mixture of stamp and write markers and copic markers to colour it in. Oh, and some torn paper bashful blue ink pad and a dauber to do the sky.
