Today I used my new stamp set 'Animal Stories' which I earned for free during Sale-A-Bration (there are two weeks left if you want to earn some stamp sets too!).
I wanted to do something different with the solid stamps, so rather than just inking them up in one color, I made a custom ink pad using a folded baby wipe (or folded kleenex with some rubbing alcohol) and dropped several drops of co-ordinating ink colors at random into it (in this case I used Mellow Moss, Apricot Appeal and Bashful Blue). Then I inked up my stamp in it and voila- a very cool effect!
I stamped two elephants on the background and a third on a scrap piece of paper which I cut out and mounted with Dimensionals to make it pop out (it's hard to see in the picture, sorry!)
I also stamped on a envelope to make it match too!
