MORE Second Helpings!

We all know the saying 'when the mood strikes' right?  I had one such moment yesterday and found another set to use those gorgeous shades of cyan and lime that Tracey treated us to over at Color Hues #58 .

Before I show you my card, I just wanted to sing the praises of a tiny little hero in my studio - this simple little tool really makes a difference in stamping!  Especially when layer-stamping... here's what I mean:

Can you see the difference?  The bottom bloom was stamped with Altenew inks - it's good but look how much clearer the top one is after I treated the stamp to a little conditioning with one of their stamp conditioning erasers!  You know when conditioning is needed when the ink beads up on your stamp - we've all seen it!

You can tell that little bugger has been a workhorse around here! ha!


I know I used the Hydrangeas on my first card - I thought this Basic Blooms set looks very much like Hydrangea blossoms, too!  The set has really good sentiments, too - simple things that most anyone would use!

The inks I used on my mini slimline card today.

Hope your Monday is going well - I have a few loads of fun yet to enjoy! wink.
