Kissing Technique - Facebook Live from October 16, 2018

Cindy's Stamping Studio Presents - Blast from the Past
Kissing Technique
 As we continue our Blast from the Past, when we first started the Technique Class, the Kissing Technique was our January, 2012 technique. It is fun to see the samples that I saved and what kind of stamps that we were using, and seeing my notes!!  Some of them are pretty funny!

The Kissing Technique is a cute and super simple technique, watch my Facebook Live for a repeat performance of this technique!!



Here are some great hints to keep in mind:  
  • Clean your stamps after each use so that the colors stay nice and crisp.
  • To make this technique even more fun, making a Kissing sound when you do the technique!

Here is a close up picture of the card that we made, I love how this card turned out and it just goes to show that you can use your Christmas stamps to make other cards as well.

Thanks!
Stamp Sets:  Dashing Deer, Hardwood Background Stamp and Lovely as a Tree
Ink:  Crumb Cake (Light), Soft Suede (Dark), Mossy Meadow, Early Espresso
