I finally received all my of stamps from this months release and I was so super duper excited to start inking them up! This month Joanna released two GORGEOUS background stamp sets and omg, I just HAD to use them on my card. Hard to believe that with all the background stamp sets I own, I have never actually inked any of them up. I was actually really surprised at how easy it was. I just followed the super talented, Kendra Sand's tutorial which can be found here. If you haven't tried it before, you should definitely check out Kendra's tutorial and give it a try. It's awesome for creating your own design paper when you just don't have that perfect color.
Here is this week's sketch:
I used several different IBS stamp sets, Background Basics I, Vintage Backgrounds (my favorite!), Fancy Labels 18, and Birthday Wishes. I am honestly so, SUPER in love with my IBS stamps! I swear, if I didn't know any better I'd think that Joanna was designing stamps just for me! (hehe!)
