Last night we learned the basics of stamping.  How to handle stamps. The proper way to clean  your stamps and blocks.And a variety of stamping techniques.  It was quite fun!  Here is what I came up with using several of the techiques shown.
 This image is from the Love Blooms set (c1511) stamped with Juniper(z2165) and sunset (z2191) inks.  The popped up flower is embossed white (z673) the sponged w/ sunset ink.  Embellishment flower is from the Autumn Lane asssortment (z1749) with Slate satin polka-dot ribbon (z1802).  Paper is Flirty paper pack (x7160b). All products are exclusive Close to My Heart products.
Hope you enjoyed this card.  Thanks for sitting with me for a bit.  See you soon.
