One of the features of today's Online Card Class was Graffiti Stamping. The general gist was to use a variety of stamps to create a unique background. I LOVED the card that Shari Carroll made for the class--wish I could share it with you--perhaps it will be made public at some point. I needed to make a card for a friend who just recently had a baby girl so at least I had some idea of the direction I wanted to go. I utilized the inlaid die cut technique that was shown the other day (and on Shari's card today) and then created my graffiti with a variety of stamps. I was digging through all sorts of stamps trying to find the right sentiments...in hindsight, I should have done a 'practice round' just so that I could get everything organized and situated ahead of time. I just kinda filled in spaces and went and looked for stamps as I was going and that wasn't really the most efficient method. Now that I have all of these supplies out, I really should make another one of these cards but my real life is calling and I must go get ready for work. Thanks for looking!
