Hey hey everyone! I can't believe it's only Wednesday (well by the time I'm done typing and editing this post it will more than likely be Thursday as it is laaaattte here) - it feels like it's been a long week.
Anywho - I FINALLY got a chance to use my Avery Elle Viking stamp - I've had SO many requests for this one and I've been dying to ink it up:
This is a 4-Bar (3.4x4 7/8") Sized Note Card
Is he not the cutest thing ever? I am actually wishing there was a wood mount version of this stamp b/c I'd love to have it on display in my studio. I don't know what it is but this guy just makes me giggle LOL!
It was really hard to pick up the shimmer I added with the Wink of Stella clear to his hat and to the hearts. I didn't want to go overboard with the sparkle as this is definitely a more masculine card - but I couldn't resist adding just that little bit - in real life it's just perfect.
Another thing I've had a lot of people asking me is if it were possible to remove the sentiment from the image - as it is all one stamp. You totally can cut it out - and if you did it carefully you could still use it with the image as it's meant to be or as a separate sentiment on your card. I show in the video how to mask it off with tape for a quick and easy fix.
