Wow! We FINALLY broke 9000 hits! :D


Just 1000 more, and we'll do a new blog candy! :D
So, this is another 2-page 6x6 layout. It's done with the pear from the Level 2 Hostess Set, INFINITE GOODNESS. I did a technique called "masking": stamp your image on a post-it or on typing paper, then cut out closely. If you did it on typing paper, put a bit of 2-Way Glue on it and allow it to dry - so it's repositionable. Next, stamp an image on your card stock - here, I used So Saffron. Place the cut-out image over top of the one you just stamped, and stamp another image - so it looks like it's going BEHIND the first one. You can cut out several images, so you can mask multiple images at once. It's a great way of getting depth to your stamping!
The other colors are Always Artichoke and Very Vanilla. Super-simple, again, but I like the vintage feel to these pages. :)
What do YOU think? What are YOU working on??? Well, darlin', take the time to STAMP something, will ya? :D Have a wonderful, blessed day!!!!!!

If you stamp it on postit notes it works well too. For the larger stamps they sell full sheets of sticky paper.

I loooove this layout. I especially like the colors you chose. So simple and sleek.
