Yesterday I was able to spend some time stamping, which was much needed for my sanity. I've had in my head for a while now to create a background with this fun car stamp. Here's what I came up with.
I stamped the outline of the car onto Soft Stone cardstock using Smokey Shadow ink. I then stamped the body with Aqua Mist and Deep Lagoon (Colorbox).
I'm thinking this could be masculine or feminine--had to leave off a frilly bow just in case!
Hope you are having a good weekend so far!

Melissa, this is super cute!
Not sure if I missed it anywhere, but yours is the first time I have seen this set used as background paper. If I didn't know better, I would have thought it was purchased patterened paper. The colors are great and it is so crisp and stamped perfectly. Great job.
This is SO CUTE, Melissa! Love the card used as a background! I'm embarrassed to say that I've had this set from the last release, but have yet to ink it up!!
Beautiful card..that car is the most adorable thing, well done!
What a super background! I love it, Melissa! Definitely a unisex card 'cos I wouldn't mind it myself *wink*

I REALLY like how you used the cars to stamp the background on this card! I don't think I would have ever thought to do that.
