I'm participating in a SAB swap and I think this is the card I'll be making. This flower is a hard stamp for me. I can't figure out how to get the ink on there without any streaks.

I have the same problem with my Monogram Alphabet letters. This is the only reason I didn't order the Big Blossom for my SAB set. I use the Classic pads, and I'm wondering if using the Craft pads would reduce or eliminate the streak problem? Does anyone know? Otherwise, adorable card. TFS! Amy

I really like your card---I think the streaks look cool--it's a different twist!!! I also love how you have combined the fontastic BG as I have not seen that used too much yet!!! Love your paper piercing and colors too!!!
MMM!!! ;o)
TFS~

I actually really like this look. I think it makes it look like fabric. Anyway, I usually rub the stamp on the ink pad like you did here, but I finish with light pats to smooth out the lines. I think the texture adds interest.
very cute card!
