Must Try Mono-Printing - Round 1

Today's Online Card Class Spring Card Camp technique was so fun, I did several rounds (and may do more before I am done).  Here are the two cards I made from my Round 1 results.

Dawn Woleslagle shared a Mono-printing technique using Distress Oxide Inks and the back of a large acrylic background stamp as your printing plate.  Of course, even though I own 5 different brayers, I couldn't find any of them this morning, so I used a sponge dauber to blend my inks.  I used three different Distress Oxides (Broken China, Cracked Pistachio and Peacock Feathers) for my palette and the Leaf Stamp from The Stamp Market Big Botanicals.

 

 

Sentiment is The Stamp Market Tons of Type with a piece of flair and paper flower from my stash and the sketch is from the Paper Craft Crew.

 

For the stamped-off cardstock I kept it simple with a die cut Simple Sentiments Thanks from The Stamp Market and torn cardstock mat.

 

I'll be back later with even more results.

I love the background that you created for our card map challenge. And that button adds a really unique embellishment touch too!
