Tell me.. what technique would YOU try ...

How fun did this one turn out? The Blessed Beginnings stamp set is just so sweet and full of charm. I kept this one a little rustic, but I can already imagine how beautiful it would be with soft watercoloring- those tress and little church would come to life!


Another fun way to create with stamps? Try heat embossing for a raised, glossy look or stamp on patterned paper for a totally different vibe. You can also layer stamped images for dimension or use blending brushes to add a soft inked background. 


Tell me...what technique would YOU try with this set?
