Let's dream of a garden full of lovely flowers and magical beings! Oh dear, I guess I am getting carried away. But, how could I not get carried away while working with this lovely stamp called Dreamer Collage from Lost Coast Designs. This stamp is nice and large ---- 5.75" square. I decided to make a wall hanging with this gorgeous stamp.
Instructions:
- To get this multi-colored effect, I used three colors of pigment ink --brown, light red, and pink.
- Cover the stamp with the pink pigment ink. Apply the brown ink on all the edges of the stamp making sure to cover the fairies.
- Add the red to the flowers.
- Now stamp onto cream CS.
- Trim around the flower petals.
- Heat emboss with clear embossing powder.
- Distress the edges with Tea Dye Distress ink.
- Layer with pink, salmon, and brown CS.
- Glue brown ribbon loop to the back -- for hanging.
- Tie pink ribbon in a bow around the brown ribbon.
Check out the super cool elements of this stamp! Love how the brown ink really brings out the Fairy images.
