At my August Stamp-a-Stack, I planned to do 3 of my favorite convention swaps. While I came home with nearly 100 great cards, I remember seeing this color combination of Baja Breeze and Marina Mist with this flower from the Simply Soft hostess set in one of my friend's stack of swaps. So sorry to say I can't give credit to the original designer of the card. I made a couple of slight changes, but as you can see, her card was just beautiful.

Polished Stone Technique
When I first started stamping, I learned the Polished Stone Technique, but it involved felt, a block of wood, metallic markers and reinkers. Now it is sooo much easier. Dampen a cotton ball with rubbing alcohol and then dab the cotton ball with Shimmer Paint (I used Champagne) and a few drops of reinker. Dab onto glossy cardstock and voila - you're done! This card uses Wisteria Wonder reinker, but it is possible to use multiple colors. It just takes a few minutes to dry and then you can stamp over it with StazOn.
