It’s a BOLD Friday!

I am having so much fun with this week’s BOLD color fun, and this month’s Friendship and St. Patrick’s theme. So many things we could do!

Today, I thought I would share an idea for stamping with color AND coloring with color. Usually I stamp with black ink and then color. For this card, I stamped the flower with green and orange and then then colored with green, orange and yellow. It creates a fun, bold look. Also, to be a bit more eye-catching, I heat-embossed the greeting in white on color - I love the look this gives!

And, it wouldn’t be a blog day here at Hero Arts without a 100 Days of Ideas card!  Here is a one I did using the same frame stamp as above, but instead as a frame for a photo.  I also used the same flowers stamps, but instead cut the stems off.  I love finding different ways to use my stamps.

Thanks for joining me this week.  I hope you are feeling inspired to go BOLD with your stamped projects.  Be sure to come back tomorrow for another 100 Days of Ideas!
