Stretch Your Clear Stamps is the theme for this challenge and we were challenged to use the reverse side of our clear stamps. I thought I'd try some color blocks. Thanks to viewing some other cardmaker's awesome cards, I was able to pick up a great tip which is to use a sponge applicator to apply the ink onto the back of the stamp. This technique worked like a charm because, before trying this, I was picking up way too much ink and my results were not very good. The sponge applied just enough ink, yay! Thanks to the ladies who generously shared their knowledge!

So that's what the reverse stamp looks like! I saw the challenge but thought no way. I can't even understand the directions let alone stamping the reverse side of a stamp. You've changed at all. I think this is a great technique. Your card showcases the technique beautifully.
