I adored the "Forever Young" stamp set the minute I saw it in the new Idea Book & Catalog...so much that I had to use it before I even ordered it! How did I do that? I got online and downloaded the My Digital Studio file for "Forever Young"! In just a few minutes I was printing out this super-sized version of the tree stamp to use on my card!
The background was so easy. I used a brayer to apply a quick (uneven) layer of Bashful Blue Classic Ink over the whole image. Then I sponged the edges with Old Olive or Marina Mist Classic Ink. The final step was adding the "A to Z" stamp in Marina Mist.
It turned out exactly the way I planned...:-)
Don't forget about the August special--FREE Designer Series Paper!!:
I've got to go take care of my little boy---he went back to school germ-land and got sick already!!
All supplies Stampin' Up!
Your card turned out great. I did not get that stamp set - but now may change my mind.
