Make it Monday: Colored Kissing


This is my second post for today.  If you are looking for my 4-of-a-Kind Post, click here.

For this week's Make it Monday MIM#57:  Colored Kissing, Heather Nichols shows us how to "kiss with color" on our stamps.  This is such a cool technique, and really very easy.  I have always wanted to try to put polka dots on the Enjoy the Ride car, and I was finally able to do it this week.  I used one of the stamps from Background Basics Retro--after looking at this card, I think it looks like it might be sponsored by Target--oh well, I like Target.



I used a Card Positioning Systems layout, CPS 256 for my layout.


Supplies Used (PTI):
Stamps:  Enjoy the Ride, BB:  Retro, Tag-it's, Fillable Frames
Paper:  Pure Poppy, Smokey Shadow, Aqua Mist Patterns, White
Other:  Enjoy the Ride, Fillable Frame, Eyelet dies, Nestie circle, Embossing folder


 Thanks for Visiting
