For my card, I inked up In the Garden with Peeled Paint distress ink, then inked up Lace Background with Wet Cement Mid Tone shadow ink and "kissed" them together. I love the textural feel of the solid area of the stamp.
I tied a bit of hand dyed seam binding and added a pearl as a finishing touch. The sentiment is from Hero Arts' Everyday Sayings.
Grab your solid surface stamps and give stamp kissing a try. The deadline for the challenge is Tuesday, June 26th.
Have a great weekend and thanks for stopping by!
