What a lot of fun the challenge is this week over at the Less is More Challenge blog... Adapt a fingerprint on a one layer card. Well technically, I'm not sure this one will fit as I did use my Thumbprint for each balloon Lol.. I masked each thumbprint as I went with a balloon shape cut from paper - and then I used a white gel pen to draw around each of them to create balloons! The Beautiful stamps are from the Little Suzys Zoo design available from Joanna Sheen. I coloured the characters with pencils - plus I coloured around the edges of the balloons to try to make them pop a little..(not actually pop Lol..)
Thank you for visiting today :)
oh wow - this is great, I was going to go with balloons at first. Steal away with the xmas lights, if you look on Pinterest you will see loads of ideas.

Such an awesome idea. Wouldve never thought you can make such cute stamps just using your own fingers. Cant wait to try, especially the little critters and balloon s. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThe balloons are amazing... your use of the gel pen has given fantastic dimension to them.
ReplyDeleteTerrific card!
Thanks so much

Thanks for the inkspiration. Such a clever idea!
ReplyDeleteSylvie the dimension and colours you've given this are stunning! I saw it on the JS Forum and thought you'd missed out the one layer part till I clicked and enlarged - totally gorgeous balloons with those adorable stamps.
ReplyDeleteThanks for getting inky with LIM this week

ReplyDeleteThank you for your kind comment on my blog, about my fossil card. I have all three sets of the Tales of the Ocean stamps and they are gorgeous - but I especially love the fossil one! You are very clever to be able to design so many wonderful stamps - they are a pleasure to work with.
Such a creative idea and a fabulous result xx
