Inspiring Inkin'

I love this stamp set, it makes really quick cards look really classy.  In all three cards I have used the En Francais background, but each one is different. 

Sage Shadow

Chocolate Chip for the base card, stamped En Francais Background in Chocolate chip, the mat layer is textured Sage Shadow with a little bit of paper piercing around the edge and the flower is stamped in Stazon onto Naturals Ivory and using the blender pens and ink I coloured it in Sage Shadow for the leaves and Rose Red for the flower.

Pumpkin Pie

Apologies for the wonky photo……..A square base card in Ballet Blue with a bit of doodling on the corners, a mat layer of Pumpkin Pie and the main image stamped in Stazon onto Naturals Ivory.  I stamped the image again on a post-it note and masked it then overstamped the En Francais background in Close to Cocoa.   Water coloured the image using Ballet Blue, Pumpkin Pie, Ruby Red and Old Olive water colour crayons and then I used my aqua painter and brushed clean water over the background to give a softer look to the text.

Chocolate Lime

A base card of Chocolate Chip, with 1″ cut off the front and the edge scalloped.  A 2″ strip of  Gable Green stuck onto the inside to show through, with Chocolate Chip ribbon tied around, and knotted……..you do know I’m bow impaired……..can’t tie bows!!!!  The main image stamped in Stazon and watercoloured, Gable Green and Chocolate Chip water Colour Crayons and then cut out.  The mat layer is Gable Green with the En Francais background stamped in Chocolate Chip, the main image mounted with Stampin’ Dimensional foam pads.

I have a definite favourite………..which one is yours?

Happy Stampin’
