The release of the 2012-2013 catalog is only one more month away. So I decided to dis up one of the first Stamp Up stamp sets I ever purchased (back in 2009) - the Upsy Daisy stamp set. I regret not having done more with this simple and delightful stamp set. I am sad to say that is one of the stamp sets retiring this year.
Card Recipe
Paper: Basic Gray CS; So Saffron CS; Whisper White CS
Ink: Early Espresso; More Mustard; Daffodil Delight
Accessories: Baja Breeze pleated satin ribbon; Glimmer brads - subtles
Tools: Big Shot; Square Lattice embossing folder
If you're wondering how I created the main image - I just took opened up my More Mustard classic ink pad and stamped the pad onto the paper directly to get this "spongy" background. I did the same with my Daffodil Delight ink pad. However, I recommend starting with the lighter colors first. Then I inked me image with a dark color (here I used Early Espresso) and simply stamped on top. I think it creates a beautiful effect.
Enjoy! Happy Stamping
