It’s almost the middle of August! Where has the summer gone?
I have been super busy and haven’t had much time for stamping, darnit!
Since the card I recently shared for the Nacho Average “summer fun” challenge featured the paper towel background technique, I thought I’d share again a card I created using the same technique with Sheltering Tree.
It may not be a new sample, but I think it is still pretty cool!
Hopefully, I can get back into a stamping routine soon.
The background was made after I cleaned up the ink from inside an embossing folder using a paper towel.
The paper towel is 2 ply, so I removed one of the plys, glued it to a piece of card stock using a glue stick and then stamped on it.
Easy, Easy!
I love the texture it gives to the card. And I always like to recycle and reuse!
Supplies Used:
Stamp Set: Sheltering Tree
Ink: various that were originally swiped on the inside of the embossing folder, then spritzed with water. Early Espresso and Emerald Envy for the trunk and tree.
Paper: Soft Suede, scrap Whisper White
Accessories: paper towel, glue stick
