Hi friends! Today I'm sharing a few cards made with Darkroom Door stamps, available at TopflightStamps.com. Up first is an easel card made with the Stars background stamp and the Look for the Stars quote stamp. I embossed the stars in white and blended Distress Inks over them for a resist. Then I watercolored stripes with Distress Inks and dried the panel completely. I went back over each stripe with a hand drawn line using the Ranger Ink embossing pen and white embossed. I stamped the quote in Distress Inks and quickly clear embossed to tie in with all the embossing.
For my next card, I embossed the Fun Flowers background stamp in pink and sponged Black Soot Distress Oxide over it for another resist effect. I embossed the Wonderful quote stamp and grunged up the edges, finishing off with some vintage trim.
For my last card, I used the Stars background stamp again, only partially stamping it in Iced Spruce Distress Oxide. I embossed the Cupcake eclectic stamp in white and used Weathered Wood, Walnut Stain and Festive Berries Distress Inks for my watercolor. I gave the background of the tag a wash with more Iced Spruce DOX. The sentiment comes from Birthday sentiment strip stamp, which has so many options for specialized sentiments. I finished off with a dyed seam binding bow and a few coordinating sequins. Fun times!
