So I'm looking through my stamps for the perfect floral to use with this technique, when this truck stamp from PSX catches my eye. Why not? I got a very quirky catalog in the mail today with wild clothes I would not feel comfortable wearing, but perfect for the faux cloisonne'. I don't know if you can see it, but the bottom truck even has "flames" from the design of the fabric.
I found my stamp positioner to be my best friend with this technique.
The background is Baroque Motifs stamped with orchid ice Opalite pad and embossed with clear EP

Oh, what a wonderful idea! I love it! This sets the bar pretty high for boys and mens cards! I love where you got your background papers! Very creative!
