Just Kidding!

I sat down recently to stamp and somehow starting making cards that all involved different coloring techniques. Some are simple, some more involved but all are a great reminder that ink and paper can combine to make so many variations of color, texture and style. Check back often this week to see more of the coloring techniques.

This card is definitely one of the simple ones but I couldn’t wait to use this new stamp set, Just Kidding. The greetings can’t help but make you smile.

After stamping the image and punching it out with the large 2-1/2″ Circle Punch, I colored the image in with the Subtles Stampin’ Write Markers.  To keep the Subtles Collection theme going, I added a piece of Pink Pirouette card stock embossed with the Polka Dot Textured Impression Embossing Folder onto the Pool Party card. I also added a length of Pool Party Cotton Ribbon around the greetings piece. 

I love the humor in the Just Kidding stamp set. Maybe you can’t buy happiness but you can stamp a card that will bring a smile to a friend.
