IC458 - Stamp Perspectives

Photo Details

Poster: girlgeek101

I was delightfully inspired by this lovely image on our inspiration site this week:
http://surya.com/rugs/modern-classics/can-1982/

I chose to modify my new Wintertime Christmas Stamp set a little for this project. I made a few 'Thank You' cards and 'Wedding Congratulations' Cards. I just painted the ink lightly onto the stamp top and bottom using a small paint brush, and I hand lettered my greetings! I think the flourishes on the stamp are a good match for the carpet, and the beautiful gold ink - well that reminds me of Candace Olson herself!

p.s. I was also inspired to highlight the point that we don't have to use our stamps exactly how we buy them on my blog as well!

Will you please join us and make something inspirational for us today?!

Hugs,
Audrie

I love it when I see an inspiration piece that reminds immediately of something I have. I can see why you chose this beautiful stamp and I love that you can change the sentiment so freely.

...sure it�s got a catchy beat, but can you stamp to it?

Great idea to use your stamp with a different sentiment! Thanks for sharing the idea.
