*********************************************
My first card uses the main stamp set. I've masked and ink blended Squeezed Lemonade, Dried Marigold, and Worn Lipstick onto a panel. I chose a few images to create a scene across this colorful panel and stamped them in bold black ink. I love this technique but don't use it often! The panel was trimmed down and added to a Stone color card stock with foam adhesive.
*********************************************
My second card uses the US Map Infinity Dies. I LOVE these! I see many, many cards being made using this set!
I layered my US die cut over a Versamark stamped background made using State-cation Bold Prints. The sentiment, from Greetings Stamp & Cut, was masked off to fit on my map. I added the tiny heart dies to where I live (Topeka, KS) and added the Greetings die in black cardstock.
