I'm so glad we have a color challenge this week at Fab Friday #65 - it gives me more chances to experiment with my "kissing" technique, lol...
No, that doesn't mean what you THINK it means - it's a bona fide stampin' technique, I promise! The idea is, you ink up a fairly solid or filled image with one color, and then either "kiss off" some of the ink with a patterned stamp, or "kiss on" the pattern in a darker ink. I have to admit, it doesn't sound very mannerly when I put it like that, snicker.
For today's card, I inked up my sentiment "bubble" with Hello Honey, and stamped on a pattern in both Marina Mist and Night of Navy. Then I did the center one with just Marina Mist and Night of Navy. I think that one came out best... A quick zig-zaggy background, and I was set!
So let's see your colors this week - and join us at Fab Friday!
I Think You're Great & Work of Art Stamp Sets; Marina Mist, Night of Navy & Whisper White CS; Night of Navy, Marina Mist & Hello Honey Inks; 1/4" Grosgrain in Marina Mist (retired); Word Bubbles Framelits (retired); Regals Candy Dots in Night of Navy.
