Now...those of you who know me, know...i am not a stamp person...i am not an ink person...!
But i have found myself in a rut lately and wanted to break out and try something different. So i grabbed this stamp and just had a go.
Here is what i came up with...
For the image of the little girl... i wanted it to have some dimension...i don't like flat things.
So i stamped out all the different parts of the girl and cut them out...
and then adhered them to the base stamped image....
i did this to even the tiniest details...ie...the little hearts on her boots are cut out..yep very small but worth it!( and i had nothing else to do that day !!!lol
For that little extra detailing i added some real lace to the bottom of her skirt! so very cute!
So to all you card makers out there that are like me..not stampers and find them intimidating...just have a go...you never know...you may enjoy it...i know i did!
Supplies used...I used a range of Crate Paper for this page..and the small white flower are done using the Paper Frills.
Okay so onto the giveaway... do you fancy winning these stamps?

Love how you used the stamps especially the lace on the skirt. I would love to see some altered art techniques on your blog. I am really new to AE and it would be great having a better idea of where to start with things at the moment I am making it up as I go with differing levels of success lol
Wendy this card is so not like you but hey girl you've come up trumps as it's really gorgeous.
