I loved this Leafy Vines cling stamp from the 2013 Hero Arts Release.
I must admit that I wasn't sure how I was going to use it. Where to put the semtiment, etc. The empty space created by stamping this on a standard card size was throwing me. Then I saw this card from Jennifer McGuire.
I liked how she used it in a non-straight forward way. So I figured I could too! My thought was to cut the card down so that the stamp covered the entire background. This way there was no space to deal with and it acted more like a pretty piece of patterned paper. So here is my card:
I also used the tip that Kristina Werner showed here on embossing buttons. I love the effect.
Supplies: Hero Arts Wet Cement Shadow Ink; Hero Arts Wet Cement Layering paper; Hero Arts Leafy Vines cling stamp; Versamark; Stampin Up Pool Party embossing powder; Simon Says Stamp Just a Love Note stamp (greeting) ; Quickutz Linear Embossing powder; Hero Arts Clear button; White cotton twine; Corner Chomper; Signo Uni-ball white pen

Both cards are awesome...I love the black and white with that touch of spring colors, and love the light blue embossing on the second one...the button is a great idea!
