  1. Lovely card Donna.

    Can you please tell me how you did the blue "splot" thingo on the caard. Yes a learner and would love to learn how you did that splot. Really adds another dimension to the gorgeous card. Thank you sincerely.

    1. Hi Mary-Ann. Thank you for asking! I just realized I didn't explain that when I did the post!. The blue "splot" (maybe a blot!) comes from the Love What You Do stamp set. You can see it in the supply list below the blog post. I inked it with Pool Party and then stamped it off onto my grid paper (or a piece of just old copy paper you aren't using) and then lightly stamped it onto the card. It's called "stamping off". If you want a color lighter, you could stamp it off onto copy paper twice so that there is even less ink left of the stamp.

      Please feel free to ask any time. You can reach me at StampsWellWithOthers@gmail.com

      Thank you again!

  2. Thank you Donna. Sadly I don't have the "splot" stamp set. Well it will now have to go on the list (which seems to be forever growing). I do like the idea of this stamping off technique so will go try it now. Thank you ever so much for your quick response. XX M

    1. HI Mary-Ann - you might have something in your stamps that would work. Look through them and see if there is anything else that would work. Maybe Sunshine Sayings (pg. 112), it has a splot of sorts, Touches of Texture (pg. 153), Waterfront (pg. 149), you get the idea. Hugs! Donna

  5. Donna, I am just a beginner and still "inadequate" but if it turns out presentable, I will email you with a picture. Only been doing this for a few months. A complete novice. Hugs: M

  6. I like this. I have a dandelion set so I am still on the fence about this. Love it with the splotchy of color too.

    1. I have the other old dandelion set too, but since I want others to have this one too, I must have it... plus I really like it!
