Today, I’m showcasing the String of Lights stamp set, which is an adorable 3″ x 4″ stamp set that consists of two stamps and five awesome sentiments. It’s small but goes a long way! I stamped the string of lights five times on an angle using my MISTI stamping tool.
I coloured the lights with Copic markers, using three shades of each colour, and adding a very light fourth colour on the outside to give them a “glow”. I stamped the sentiment using ombre neon red to purple ink and framed it using the Things Change stamp set and the Captions and Labels Dies.
I layered the String of Lights panel with a vellum layer and I also used the Mandala Maker Die to dry emboss the corners on the linen base panel for a lovely texture. To finish, I brushed the lights with Wink of Stella and added July Crystals to the red lights.
See you tomorrow for Day 2 of the October Release Countdown!
