Stampendous & Core Blog Hop


Hi Everyone!  

If you are joining us for Stampendous and Core’dinations blog hop…Welcome!!! We had so much fun yesterday…I can’t wait to show you want I created for you today. 

So…today I wanted to show you a technique I used a lot. I am using the Pumpkenstein Cling Stamp. Sometimes there are parts of the stamp that I don’t necessarily want to use at a particular time. In this instance, I wanted to use googely eyes but the eyes from the Frankenstein were a little too big. They stuck out of the sides of the googley eyes. SO…I inked up the stamp and then wiped off the eyes with a paper towel.



Then I stamped the image. You can see a little bit shows up but that is okay because the eyes will cover it up. 

 And then Frank’s hair needed a pick me up so I added some Stampendous Glitter.




AND how much do you LOVE this purple Glitter Silk???? Check it out embossed! (Sigh) It’s gorgeous…one of my faves. And it really pops off of that Black Magic cardbase.


Here are the blogs for today. Have fun!!!!

What a simple idea to just wipe off the ink. I was thinking that you'd have to mask out the eyes. Dah!!
