I love combining several stamp sets to create fun, unique card designs. So many stamp sets from different companies work so well together and give so much possibility for a variety of cards.
For today's card, I used four different stamps sets from three different stamp companies to create a completely stamped design that looks like it actually came together.
I started with the Splendid set from Mama Elephant and stamped it in Versafine Black Onyx ink. Once I had that stamped, I added all of the flowers from the Clearly Besotted Love Blossoms stamp set around the sentiment in a pattern that I liked. I used the largest and the smallest and used all three of the stamps that make up each flower. I used a darker ink for the edges and centers of the flowers.
After the flowers were completely stamped, I added the green swirls from the Simon Says Stamp Favorite Flowers stamp set around the flower images. I added glitter to the sentiment, the green swirls and parts of the flowers with the ZIG clear fine glitter pen.
To finish the card, I added glossy accents to all of the flowers and added a Basic Grey metallic gem to the centers while they were still wet. I adhered the stamped panel onto a Simon Says Stamp Green Apple card base, that I had stamped with the Clearly Besotted Diagonal Stripes stamp set.
Such a fun way to get more out of your stamps by creating completely different card designs!
