Rubber Stamped Cards

One of my paper passions has been rubber stamping.
I was the owner of Wood-n-Paper Ink for seven wonderful years. 
I made many great friends during that time, and I can honestly say, 
rubber stampers are the most friendly people you will ever meet!
Here are some of the cards that were made 
from the Wood-n-Paper, Ink  line of rubber stamps.

Coloring is very relaxing and enjoyable for me.
Water color pencils leave a soft subtle look while 
markers make a more strong bold look.


HINT: 
Embossing the stamped image will raise the image off the paper and make coloring much easier.


On many of these cards I used a stipple brush and dye based inks...
How did I stay within the lines?
Many of the original Wood-n-Paper, Ink stamps also have a stencil set that can be purchased. Each section of the image is cut out of a thin plastic sheet, and when positioned over the stamped image it can be quickly colored with 
a stipple brush and your favorite ink pads.
