Limited Supply challenge was super easy two weeks ago. All we had to do is make a card that was smaller then 4 1/4″. I love small cards. I hadn’t used my Essence of Love set much, so I knew I wanted to use that. After seeing Silke Ledlow color her Pretty Petals background stamp, I knew I wanted to do the same with this stamp.
I started out by inking the flower with a Fantastix and Wasabi reinker as well as Pumpkin Pie and Ruby Red markers.
After I had it all inked up, I sprayed it carefully with my misting bottle and stamped it on a 2 3/4″ Soft Sky cardstock square. I had to cut it down 1/8″ because the end of the stamp was showing a bit on the bottom. That didn’t look too good.
Next I sponged the top edges with Soft Sky and the bottom with Wild Wasabi. Then I highlighted parts of the image with white gel pen. The image was layered on a 1/4″ bigger piece of sponged Chocolate Chip cardstock. Then I paper pierced the edges of the main image.
The card base is a 3 3/4″ x 7 1/2″ piece of Ruby Red cardstock. It was stamped first with Twill background, then with Baroque Motifs swirls. The card front edges were first sponged with Ruby Red, then with Chocolate Chip.
The main image square was attached to the card base with dimensionals. The sentiment was stamped on Shimmery White. I used my corner rounder to round the end of the strip. The strip was first sponged with Pumpkin Pie, then with Ruby Red and last really softly with Chocolate Chip.
Wild Wasabi Double Stitched ribbon was attached with a piece of Aged Copper Hodgepodge Hardware.
I used this card for the tutorial on SCS today. It’s a basic and easy technique. The more you mist, the more the ink will run.

Beate,
I think you finally sold me on this stamp set. I haven’t liked this one at all, but this technique is awesome. I love it now, and especially on soft sky. Everything just looks better with a little soft sky and chocolate chip, don’tcha think? 😉

Stunning!! I LOVE all of your highlights! This is just gorgeous, Beate!!! I think you are swaying about a million people into buy this set. 😉
So very pretty, just love the colors and the flowers are gorgeous!
wow!! love the dimension your layered sponging gives and the stamped image- another reason I “need” Essence of Love. I’ll definitely try this technique soon! TFS~
I love the color combination you used here! And I’ve forgotten all about the option of misting using markers (I’ve used the wonder crayons for that mostly, but the markers definitely give a bolder color). Thanks for sharing this one. I love it. I’ll have to CASE it!
This is so gorgeous!!
