Soaring Love

As promised in my February Newsletter I have created a card featuring a stamping off technique or Repetition Stamping.  Another terms for this Technique would be first and second generation, with this example having 5 generations. In this card the technique has been used to give an illusion of movement as the plane takes flight. The idea did come from Tracie St Lewis on Pinterest.

I created the card by making a background with Sponging and Aqua Painters to create the sky then stamped directly onto the dry background in Archival Ink.

Added the greeting from the same stamp set “Sky is the Limit” and a few jewels and card done. Apart from the drying this technique gives a quick effective card, with minimal supplies. Think bikes, cars, old gramophones, running bunnies for Easter. Let the imagination run riot.

A quick bag make with the Stampin’Up! Birthday Boutique DSP papers  with the Gift Bag Punch Board. Three other pieces were cut with the Banner Framelit Die.  Rang all three layers through big Shot with the smallest eyelet from Chalk Talk at the top. Stamped image in Crumb Cake on Whisper White from Honeycomb Happiness Stamp Set and again on Pink Pirouette Card Stock in Pink Pirouette ink. Cut out the  ice cream and adhered to cone image.  Stamped Greeting from Honey comb Happiness. Peeled the paper off back of tiny ball of Honeycomb Embellishments and placed on ice cream.  Covered peg with  tiny strip DSP then  Tied a bow in Whisper White bakers twine and all done.

Meg was delighted with not only the chocolates but the cute bag they came in.
