Saturday, May 30th, is World Creativity Day! Such a fantastic day to embrace your own creativity and for us to support each other in the paper crafting community. For her final challenge for the CCEE Stampers for May, Hostess Kelly McKown Santi has asked us to make a card using OUR OWN favorite card-making technique ~ the sky is the limit!
I don't think it is a secret to anyone that my favorite card-making technique is Multi Step Stamping. I have worked hard at it for over 12 years now and hopefully have gotten better and better at it with the invention of stamp positioners and fabulous new inks! I got on board with it on the ground floor with Maria Colosimo of Kitchen Sink Stamps who was creating layering stamps before layering stamps were the hot items they have become today. Now it seems that everyone has jumped on the band wagon and many people are discovering how awesome they are to work with. Coloring with Copics - not my thing! Layering ink on top of ink on top of ink - that's MY THING! I always get excited when I see the multi-layered creations of other stampers!

Today's cards feature the newly released Kitchen Sink Stamps Old World Door and Potted Topiaries.
It will be fun to see what everyone else claims as their favorite technique. I can guess on a few! Here are links to the cards created by the members of the CCEE Design Team:

ReplyDeleteI couldn't find the editing key, so I am trying again. You not only have mastered the multi-layering using these fabulous stamps, but your keen eye to color selection, space perception, and getting things in proper proportion are all part of your talent. The masking you use on these scenes is phenomenal. You are the best!
ReplyDeleteYour multi stepped cards are always so awesome. You definately have that technique down perfectly. This card is no exception. Beautiful.
