This week at Pile It On! we're goin' old school with the theme of Ink-on-paper Stamping. You can use digi products, but actual stamping needs to be the focus.
We are sponsored this week by Rogue Redhead Designs, and even though it's not my week to play with the PIO team, I couldn't resist pulling out some of my own RRD stamps. I used this lovely scene from their Nature Notes set:
One of my favorite uses of Rogue Redhead rubber stamps is to ink them with markers (I use American Craft and Marvy stamp markers). The RRD stamps have such nice, deep edging that it makes them easy to color, and even when it takes some time to ink the whole piece, it always stamps very well (I always breathe on the final ink, to refresh it.) The stamped piece is cut-out and pasted onto the background.
I bought this set partly with a gift certificate that I won via Rogue Redhead Designs #31, but this is my first time inkin' it up. (You can see some of my other projects featuring RRD stamps here.) The "hello" was cut with a TCW die with paper I stamped with a Woodgrain pattern from the same set.
The background was inspired by the Quilted Tiles Tutorial at Rogue Redhead Designs, but I used a stencil instead (made in SCAL and cut on my Silhouette Cameo), so it's a bit more of a harlequin pattern, but I'm still linking it up! Thanks for the inspiration, Sharon and all at RRD. I inked it with one of my favorite inks, Barely Banana from Stampin' Up, which is very subtle in most light, but in direct sunlight can be quite bright. It's like a surprise of sunshine!
I wanted a little something extra, so I put a bird on it. I backed the wooden bird (from Prima or Darice) with a scrap of paper from the "hello" die cut.
