SHARING THE ART OF HANDCRAFTED CARDS...BY LORI PINTO
I do love sketch challenges and this was no exception! I used my all-time favorite ‘host’ stamp set, ‘Tranquil Tulips’ as both the foreground and background focal image. I stamped Fresh Fig ink on Fresh Fig card stock for the tone-on-tone effect for the center square. I used the Stitched Shapes Framelits for both the …

Happy Labor Day! This card was super quick to put together. I used the Wood Words Stamp Set, the Wood Crate Framelits Dies (buy them together and save 10%) and the Wood Textures DSP Stack. It wasn’t hard to put together this rustic looking card… with very little stamping! I used the Big Shot to …
