These three cards were made with the same background stamp (Waves) by Local King Rubber Stamp.
The bright ones are done with SU's in-colors Melon Mambo and Bermuda Bay. They were stamped on SU cardstock (whisper white). I cut the cardstock inked with the waves into 1” strips and framed them with the matching in-color carstock.
The subtle one is created with Adirondack Lights - Lake Mist. The chicks are also from www.localkingrubberstamp.com with a set call Chicks. I colored chicks on the stamps with a variety of earth tone SU markers. The paper with the chicks is shiny, clay coated, and dries quickly. Next time I would use less linear strokes to color the chicks. You color and stamp the primary images and then stamp the background.
We all know color can make or break a project. It is interesting to me to see the variety of feels you can get from the same stamp inked in different colors.
