When Jeanette Lynton began her venture into stamping 30 years ago, she drew by hand all her stamp images. Originally made of rubber and set on wood blocks, a few of these stamp sets are available to you in clear polymer for a limited time only! Enjoy the intricate and cozy line designs in conjunction with our alcohol-based markers for fun accents that will brighten your layouts as they take you back in time.
When I saw Jeanette's stamp archive in the Idea Book back in June, it brought back so many memories of where I began with Close To My Heart. I had many of the old rubber/wood stamp sets shown on
pages 114-115 of the Autumn/Winter 2013 catalog.
Including this one: A1145 Flowering Thanks
I used a combination of the Laughing Lola papers and Frosted papers. How often do you try to mix & match papers? The Champagne patterned paper on the card front is Frosted, as is the piece I stamped on. The other papers are Laughing Lola, including the zip strip from Lola. I also used our Exclusive Alcohol Marker Sets to color in the details of the image. Colors used include: Blush (dark), Gypsy, Lagoon (light), and Hollyhock (dark). I high-lighted the word "Thank You" by going over the sentiment using the Whisper (light) marker. My embellishments for this card were kept simple: Pink Glitz Glitter Gel (bling in a bottle!) and the hemp bakers twine from the Wooden Mini Medley Collection.
