that April is over halfway over? Spring is here! Since Stampin' Up's promotion for this month is
Two Step into Spring, I thought today I would talk about Two Step Stamp sets. Awash with Flowers set is a sneak peek into the new Idea Book and Catalogue that comes out in July but SU has made it available now.Here are all the images in the set
How two step stamping works is you stamp the solid image first and then in a contrasting but darker ink stamp the outline image over the top. But, there are other ways of using this type of stamp set, stamp just the solid images in White craft ink and then color with pastels (Black Magic technique) or stamp just the line images and then color the images in. For todays card, I did the last technique. I stamped the images onto Watercolor paper with Black Stazon ink and then using Yoyo Yellow and Only Orange colored in the flowers then using Tempting Turquoise colored in the background.
These flowers remind me of wild California poppies.
