Did you know that stamps can be interactive? By combining several stamps, Judith Kleinschmidt creates a harmonious design. Materials: Sprig stamps
Stamps with small leaf designs
Flower stamp
Red and green inks
Damp cloth or paper towel
Heart template
- Begin by placing heart template on page left of the center.
- Then, use spring stamp to stamp over edge of heart template. Part of the stamped image will be on the template, while the other portion will be on the page. Tip: Create dimension by varying pressure while pressing stamps.
- Next, move the heart template slightly to right of center. Position so that hearts will overlap and appear to be "interlocking." Stamp sprigs in the same manner as in step 2 (figure A).
- Next, begin stamping leaves over the sprigs. Avoid stamping leaves in a continuous pattern -- instead, add leaves randomly.
- Use red ink to stamp small flower images around the wreath (figure B).
- Use journaling pen to add names inside hearts.
- Journal, embellish and add photos as desired.
