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!

Clean and Simple 2 Day 3 - 3

Another card showing the off set stamping again, this time using softer inks.  What do you think?  Bold or Soft?
I used the soft lilac shadow ink and paired it up with PTI spring rain. I also used harvest gold with both the lilac and spring rain.  Depending on what color ink was stamped first, the final stamp is either a greenish color (like at the top left) or more bluish...cool technique.  And I tried to pay closer attention to the off setting of the stamp the second time...more subtle...And the sentiment is from the Think Big # 24 stamped in the Spring rain ink.  I like this one too...softer, but very nice.  I mounted this on a spring rain card stock.
