Lillibet Stamps

Lillibet - In the Garden

You might remember my projects created with the Lillibet collection by Trimcraft. Recently they also released some fabulous stamps. They are a brilliant addition to this lovely collection, as they give us so much more creative freedom than stickers or printed images.

For the above card I opted for more intense colours and tried out a different hair colour. I used Spectrum Noir pens to colour in the image.

A product list and step-by-step instructions are in my Trimcraft gallery. The swirls are created using a die by Marianne Designs. The background paper and kraft cardstock can, of course, easily be cut with a paper trimmer or guillotine, but I could not resist to try out the square layering dies by Tonic Studios. I could not be tempted by square dies for a long time, but the increments and the large number of dies in this set changed my mind. And somehow it is quite nice to get perfect squares every time, which will come in very handy for techniques like teabag folding.
