Kissed Daisies

Hello friends!  Today I am hosting the "Ways To Use It" Challenge over at Splitcoaststampers.  Since February is the love month, we are using kissing on our cards...that is, Kissing Techniques."  Here are three tutorials you can use to help create your cards:  Kissing Technique, Kissing With a Twist, and Embossed Kisses.  

Creative Nugget:  The solid daisy image from the Daisy stamp set from Rubbernecker was inked with several Oxide Inks, stamped off once, spritzed lightly with water, pressed to an embossing folder that had been inked with Salty Ocean Oxide Ink, and stamped on mixed media card stock.  The sentiment from the Truth Quotes 1 stamp set by Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps was stamped and embossed...love how embossing the sentiment makes it pop.  A wash of Oxide Inks was applied to a background piece of mixed media paper, the How Do I Love Thee scrip stamp from Rubbernecker was lightly and randomly stamped and the panel was then embossed with the same folder used for the "Kissing."  The panels were cut with Pierced Rectangle and Pierced Square dies from Our Daily Bread Designs.  A black gingham ribbon was added.

This card will also be submitted for the following challenges:

Stamp, Ink, Paper Challenge #137 - Tic-Tac-Toe (Ribbon, Flowers, Watercolor)
