On days 7 and 8 of Online Card Classes’ Stretch your stamps 2 we worked with graphic stamps and specifically Avery Elle’s Rounded Diamonds. I did do some of the cards from the class (will post later) but I also came up with my own idea for using the raindrop stamps from Rounded Diamonds.
I simply stamped the large teardrop three times rotating it slightly to achieve the tulip-like look of the flower. I then gave each flower bud a detail by stamping the smaller teardrop in a darker shade and finally I added a mat white “diamond” to each flower bud. In order to create the stems I stamped lines using a stamp that was made as the string for a balloon and then used the small teardrop to stamp leaves.
