CHA Sneak Peeks Day 1

I'm so excited to share some of my new designs with you this week, and I hope you like what you see! I've added a few more sweet silhouettes to my line, so here are a couple of those! I created a background here first using Brusho powders on photo paper - I love how the powders react on the glossy surface, and stay vibrant without bleeding too much.
Stamps I used: Watering, CAC Bee Stitch, Bitty Blocks - Thinking
On both of these cards I used my MISTI to get a good dark impression - being able to stamp over and over again in the same place is so helpful for these solid images.
On the card above, I used another MISTI technique called MISTI Marbling - it's a fun way to get a multi-color impression, and it worked so well with this new background stamp!
Stamps I used: CAC Crochet, Twirling, So Happy
