Coffee With A Splash

At my last Coffee With A Splash Of Inspiration I used the Soft Seedlings stamp set. It is gorgeous, and so easy to create with.

The images in this stamp set have all the shading built right in, so it is super easy to create lovely texture and realism in your stamping.
I did some very simple stamp for these cards, just ink once, then stamp three times, giving a lighter image each time. It is so easy, but gives beautiful results with lots of variation in colour intensity.
I used Blackberry Bliss for this card, and some Crumb Cake Bakers Twine to add a bow to finish it off.

For the second card I used Merry Merlot ink and stamped the same way. I love the sentiments in this stamp set as well. They are perfect for sharing gratitude and letting someone know you care.
