This large background stamp is so much fun to create with. You don't have to use the whole image which is easy to forget for any stamp but especially these large stamps.
I stamped the daisies on a piece of Basic White with Memento ink and colored this in with watercolor pencils. I did add a bit of Wink of Stella to the center of the daisies.
It's easy to forget that you don't have to color in images too! Here I stamped the center portion of the stamp with Gorgeous Grape ink. I layered the image with some Gorgeous Grape cardstock. The background was embossed with Pretty Flowers embossing folder.
On these cards, you see the whole image but with a fun and easy technique. I stamped the image with VersaMark ink and then sprinkled it with white embossing powder and heat set it on both of the pink cardstocks. One pink is Polished Pink and the other is Melon Mambo. Use the Stamparatus for this so that the images are in the exact same spot on both pieces of cardstock. I then laid the large circle die on top of both pieces of cardstocks that were stacked together. I ran them through my die cutting machine all at the same time, cutting the circle from both pieces of cardstock. I then swapped the two circles around and adhered them to the other center with dimensionals.
This is a super simple technique. If you can't get your circle to cut, run it through your die cutting machine more than once. Sometimes it just needs the extra run through to get it to cut. You can see the Facebook Live video HERE where I made these two cards.
Here is the Melon Mambo with the Polished Pink circle.
This one is the Polished Pink with the Melon Mambo circle.
Which do you like better? I really like the Melon Mambo with the Polished Pink circle. I think it's more striking then the other way around. Tell me what you think!
