Yesterday ended up being such a great day - I think we should have Mother's Day more often. It was so nice having a family dinner with grandparents and uncles on a gorgeous Sunday afternoon.
Today's card uses two stamp companies that I haven't used in a while. Have you tried the stamps from Art Declassified yet? These stamps are red rubber stamps that come mounted on ez mount ready for acrylic blocks. Some of the sets come just the red rubber but they send the ez mount with the stamps so you just have to cut and mount them yourself. These are nicely etched, high quality stamps. They take to all kinds of ink really well and the images stamp fantastic.
For this card, I took the funky vine image and stamped it several times using rust chalk ink.
The sentiment is also stamped in rust and it's from a clear sentiment set from Stampendous. This was the first time I had used Stampendous clear stamps. I have used their red rubber mounted stamps over the years but not the clear. I was pleasantly surprised. Every time I use one of these stamps, I get a great image. They too take all types of ink well and are very easy to use.
This card was a fast, quick card that looks cool, to me at least. I would highly recommend the Stampendous clear stamps as well as the Art Declassified red rubber stamps. Both companies offer quality stamps that make the art of creating much easier.
