This was for the limited supplies challenge, and I had a blast with this. What an easy thing to do. I really love how this card pops! Other than the faux stitching, this card was quick and easy. Only issue I had is with the large flower from the pick a petal set. For some reason the SU inks don't like this stamp, it just comes out a mess. Anyone else have this issue?

This is adoarable!! I love the colors Great card!!!
If you meant the solid image stamp, it may just need to be 'roughed up' a bit...they use a solvent to release the rubber from the mold, and sometimes it makes the ink bead up... if you rough it lightly witha sanding block, or pencil eraser, or even rub it on your jeans, then clean as usual, it whould help with the ink coverage. Good luck, beautiful work!

I've noticed it on some of my stamps too (I don't have this set, though) - something about the texture, I guess. This card is gorgeous! Terrific colors and a great layout!

Very nice card! Yes, I have had the same issue with this set, sometimes the image doesn't stamp all the way and it doesn't look right. You did a good job though, I guess it just takes patience and a steady hand! :-)
