Hi All,
There are a many background stamps that have lots of crowded objects, like flowers, shapes, curves, and in this case, circles. I thought it would be fun to “dissect” it into its individual parts. I used a black marker to add some shading so that you could see the layering.
If you are participating in the Christmas Card Exchange, please be sure to mail your cards this week.
I’ll be back Thursday to launch the December Challenge!

What a surprise to have a video today instead of tomorrow. I love this doodle background stamp. Maybe SSS will get them back in stock soon for all of us who would like to get one.. This card was very unique, as usual. Thanks as always for consistently giving us another clever technique to try.

That looks fabulous! I really love the depth of the image you created. I am going to have to add that stamp to my wish list, so I can play with it!

I really like the graphic nature of this card, specially love the shadows you added at the end, the colors combine perfectly.
Thank you for sharing.

I like that you usually have a technique in each video rather than just featuring a stamp or stamp set. Beautiful effect on this card. I may attempt it. Thanks.

You never fail to WOW me, thus card is different and amazing. Love the colours and I’m going to try it with a flower background stamp I have. Thanks for the inspiration.
Patti
The silver was pretty on its own, but then you added turquoise and violet, and then the black shading. Fantastic. Like the depth and dimension.

I love this card Darlene. I am very partial to those colours too. A great technique. I am going to have to go through my stamp sets and see if there are any I can simulate. Thanks for sharing.
