Technique- Stamp Kissing

Looking for a new stamping technique to try?  Check out Jeanette Lynton, from Close to my Heart, for some great ideas.  You can go to her blog here.

Stamp Kissing is when you take your inked stamp and push it or "kiss" it against something else so that you can get a different image or texture on the stamp.  You can use a background stamp, some ribbon you have, scrap paper or anything that has either a raised or an indented image.

She has lots of ideas I haven't heard of before so even if you are familiar with the technique, check it out!

Then be sure to try it out yourself!  Have fun and Happy Scrappin'!
