a card a day in may - 5/9: THANKS A MILLION

Hello, stampy peeps! It's A Card A Day In May time again! :) Here's one I just made a few nights ago using some new goodies I got from the Impress sale:


I love any bold, funky flora images, and these 'Leafy Stems' are awesome. Here, I stamped the larger one once with a fully inked stamp, and then again on either side without re-inking the stamp. This is usually known as generation stamping, and a great way to stretch your inks. You can use just one ink, and with generation stamping, get multiple shades of the same hue. ;)

And I think I need an intervention when it comes to using banners for my sentiments these days... I can't stop! LOL

See you maƱana! Thanks for peekin'! :)

SUPPLIES
paper - Goergia Pacific (wht) and Bazzill (lime)
stamps - Impress (Leafy Stem & Small Leafy Stem Crosshatch) and Hero Arts CL341
inks - VersaMagic (Key Lime) and Brilliance (Mediterranean Blue)
other - Stampin' Up ribbon and pop dots
