Hey, whatcha doin’?

Hey, whatcha doin’?  Happy Friday my friends.  I was again, cruising the “what’s new section” over on the Simon Says Stamp website, and Impression Obsession just had a new release.  I fell head over heals for this adorable little “bluebird” stamp and thought he would make an awesome  10 minute or less cards – I was right!.

My internet has been funky all day, so here’s a picture tutorial with the steps instead of a video.

I stamped my new little friend in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and coloured him with my copic markers.

Sorry for the glare Blue:  B00, B02, B05, Yellow:  Y11, Y15, Y17, green YG03.

I stamped him again on my Inkadinkado stamping mask paper and cut him out.  Cut half of the outline off too.  TIP – you can reuse these about 10 times, so save the backing.

I covered him up and used my Ranger Mini Blending tool to add Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide as my background.

I uncovered him, rubbed the ink dry with a tissue and added a sentiment from the Simon Says Stamp – Messages for Everyday Stamp Set

LOVE this set of sentiment stamps, it’s my new “go to” set – with 32 stamps it covers about everything and I think there are three different sets to choose from.  Great to have when you play with these little stamps that don’t come with a sentiment.

Finally I embellished him just a tad, with Hero Arts Pearls and Gems in green and blue.
