Faded Look on Purpose

Thinking I'd inked a flower just right, I stamped it on this card--only to realize, too late, that some of image hadn't picked up ink.

Throw it away?  NO WAY!  :-)  Instead, I decided to continue the look over the whole card.

Here's what I came up with:

 

 

I've got to admit, it was kind of fun to "mess up" on the stamping on purpose.  It was even a little tricky at times and I wanted to cringe when a flower would come out too "clean."

 

 

I used four stamp sets to create this card: "Joyful Birthday," "Tiny Typewriter Alphabet," "Girls Rock," and "Cottage Floral"--all stamps from CTMH.

 

Colors include: CTMH's Blush, Gypsy, Sunset, Creme Brulee, and Sweet Leaf.

 

What do you think?

 

 

Thanks for stopping to look!

Blessings,
