Create with Cheiron heading and colorful cards over white background

a blog named Hero: challenge #7

ABNH Challenge-7
I’m back with another challenge post for A Blog Named Hero. This challenge is all about Stretching Your Stamps! Today I will be sharing 2 ways that I used the Hero Arts/Basic Grey Flower Table Cloth Background Stamp to get 2 completely different looks.

For the first card, I stamped the image in black onto kraft: 

_MG_0036
And I stamped the entire background stamp again for this card, but embossed it in white and used Distress Markers to color in the negative image for a completely different look: 

_MG_0035

As always, our challenge is sponsored by the ever generous Heidi at Simon Says Stamp!

    OH EM GEE, Cheiron!!!!!!! I’d add another exclamation, but I want to save room to tell you how in love I am with these cards! Talk about inspiration – I would never have thought to use a background stamp for the challenge. I also forgot about the embossing and coloring technique for this stamp! It is GORGEOUS and I’m swooning…. Hugs, Marcy

    I love that set! I played all day last week. I tried the white embossing/coloring w/ Distress Markers and I gotta say…I totally failed! I can actually see your image LOL! Mine was very, well, it was just wrong! Maybe I’ll try again. Love the black and kraft too, so classic ๐Ÿ™‚
