stamps and ink and paint...oh my!

One of the things that I wanted to introduce to my pages was a more random element... most of my pages are straight, liner etc.... I wanted to add flow ( i talked about that the other day).

So I wanted to introduce some stamps, paints, inks etc....I spent alot of time looking a various different peoples pages...stuff that I love but would have no idea how to use myself. So over the last few days I have been playing. Now believe me when I say, this page has been different so many times...in total about 4. It has changed so much since the beginning..and this is what I ended up with.

For some reason the colours are a tad wonky....I think it is all the kraft. I am currently scrapping lots of old photos that my father put onto disc for me...this is me and my nan, years ago!

 and some close ups...

I stamped the flower stamp and then coloured it in with some oil pastels.....

I used my capture the moment stamp...for a place for my text....

my cameo cut title...and I even used up some of my rub ons...the the sub title.

I used a gorgeous flower stamp on some kraft cardstock...a stamp that i love and had yet to use!

well......all I can is that I had so much fun trying something new....and I loved using my stamps...I am kicking myself for giving most of them away a month ago....oh hum...will have to start collecting some more! thanks for looking!
