We Are Explorers

Have you checked out the background stamps? Today I'm featuring the hero_product_link sku="S6144" text="Wave Pattern"]. I only used a portion of the image rather than the entire design:

I inked up the hero_product_link sku="S6144" text="Wave Pattern"] with hero_product_link sku="AF310" text="Mint Julep to Emerald Green Ombre Ink"] and while it was sitting face up, I placed my Snow card stock panel directly onto the inked stamp. I generally grab a large clear block and run it over the card stock to ensure good ink coverage.

I decided where to trim the hero_product_link sku="S6144" text="Wave Pattern"] panel and mounted it onto a hero_product_link sku="PS620" text="Blush Layering"] panel. I couldn't wait to ink up "We Are Explorers" from hero_product_link sku="LP373" text="Kelly's Happy Place"] set.

To create some added interest, I adhered a couple enamel dots in a contrasting color. This is a fun gender neutral design.

Thanks so much for stoppin' by today!
