For today's card I am playing along with the Papertrey Ink "Make It Monday #116 - Adding Texture to Stamps". Betsy Veldman has a video showing how to add texture to stamps by using a comb. For my card I used the Papertrey Ink Rosie Posie set. I added texture to the petals only and kept the centers solid. I used Stampin Up inks Early Expresso, Crumb Cake, So Saffron & More Mustard with the rock n' roll technique to add a little depth to the petals. The sentiment is from a retired SU set, which was inked around the edges with Antique Linen Distress Ink. I also used the Distress Ink on the ribbon to dirty it up a bit.
Here is a closer view of the texture using the comb.
I think this is a very interesting technique to use with solid stamps.
It really does give them a different look.
Until next time...
Beautiful card!! I love the sunflowers.
