Some More "Kissing"

I tried a variation on the kissing technique for this card. Instead of kissing the texture to the main image, I used the texture stamp, in this case the Screen Shadow stamp, as my ink source. I inked up the Screen Shadow really well with Hero Hues Chalk ink and then inked the Trees of the Season (CG208) shadow stamps on the inked stamp.


 The texture is transferred to the stamp with the ink. I like the subtle look and now I'm looking for some more shadow stamps to use this technique with. I'm still trying to get the hang of using my sewing machine, I'm hoping that practice really will make perfect someday. The Hero Hues colors used are: Cerulean for winter, Grass for spring, Poppy for summer and Punch for fall. The sentiment is an SRM sticker.

~Psalm 73:25-26 ~
Whom have I in heaven but You?
I desire You more than anything on earth.
My health may fail and my spirit may grow weak,
but God remains the strength of my heart,
He is mine forever!

blessings,
nancy
