Colour Challenge #11

...is Soft Suede, Crumb Cake, and Blushing Bride


Here is my card. I'm not really excited about it but I think this stamp set would be great for framed decor. But I'm going to try another way with it.


Technique Tip: To change the ink colour on part of a stamp, ink stamp with the first colour then take the blender pen and remove the ink from the area you want to change colour. Once all ink is removed, take the marker and apply ink to that area. This technique was used on the crib and sentiment.
