One seed can start a garden, one candle can light a room, one step can begin a journey, one conversation can start a friendship, one smile from a handmade card can lift one's SPIRIT!

Stretching your Stamps...more lattice

This time for the lattice background stamp, I heat embossed it with white powder on water color paper, then I used distress inks and a sponge to bring in more color.  The phone and sentiments are from PTI's Heart 2 Heart $5 stamp set and die...The phone is adhered with DOTS...I am wondering why it takes a class to use my stamps in different ways...so far, I am liking the class, we are now into day 3 and I look forward to making some new things!
