1. Stamp a row of trees at the top of a piece of cardstock using third generation ink.
2. Cut a curving line towards the bottom of your row of trees.
3. Layer the cut off piece of cardstock over the original piece, making sure to overlap a little.
4. Stamp another row of trees below the first using second generation ink.
5. Repeat steps 2 and 3.
6. Stamp another row of trees at the bottom of the cardstock using first generation ink.
7. Without reinking, fill in any dead spaces by stamping the trees again.
Voila, you have a forest / mountain scene! You could probably do this with other types of stamps, but it was fun to do with the trees. Now let's see what you talented ladies come up with for the week.
Recipe:
Classmate Alphabet & Back to Nature stamp set

Linking up early in case I get sidetracked with V-Day projects for two kiddos and a husband :). Love the sketch and hope to use it in the near future! Will have to take a closer look at the process you outlined in this post too!
ReplyDeleteYeah...I remembered to post my page, was a naughty girl and forgot last week. I've been getting pages done but not always in time for Friday upload here. I'm loving the pages I see and that sketch is FABULOUS!!! I did get a lot done at SCS VSBN so I'm on track, let's see how long I can keep that up. Love the stamping process and will try that in a few weeks when I have the extra time to play...THANK YOU!
ReplyDeleteOK - SO as soon as I hit the send button on my email from SCS to you, the page came up. It took a very long time though, so I'm not sure what is up!
