This is for the TLC110, Faux Shaving Cream. I needed a *guy card* for a friend who is an avid camper-hiker.
The technique is simple and fun: you ink up a solid stamp, then ink up a small stamp in a lighter color and *twist* it onto the big stamp, before stamping onto the cardstock. I used the technique on the trees and the bear. The grass stamp on the bottom is the same stamp that I used for the twisting on the larger stamps. I love the textural look that this produces.
I clear-embossed the bear, but otherwise left the card soft and quiet. It's very hard for me to keep my hands off the glitter!
Thanks for looking! Maddy

This is AWESOME! First the shaving cream--it softens the trees nicely, and the bear is so cool. Like the overall layout too. And the two tone birds really wowed me. Thank you so much for sharing this great card.
