Colour Creations - Daffodil Delight






While I was creating another card with Penguin Place, it occurred to me that there was a way to update the rubber band technique. An oldie but a goodie where you put rubber bands around your block and stamp away to create a random background. The curvy stamp, representing a hill, was perfect, stamped in various shades. I tried it first on the Stamparatus, but found hand-held on a long block was a better result.


Repeat stamping with one of the sentiments from Penguin Place was achieved by using the Stamparatus. Firstly I stepped one lot using Coastal Cabana, and after repositioning the card. it was possible to stamp between using Balmy Blue. The 'be merry' part of this sentiment was left off, causing the message read 'Be Cool, Be Chill'.


An additional greeting was stamped with Biggest Wish onto a circle surrounded by a Daffodil Delight scalloped circle.

I'm looking forward to seeing what the lovely Rosa Leyden is sharing with us this week, come on, let's check it out!
