Have you been enjoying the eye candy so far this week?? It's not over yet! We have one last day of blog-hopping fun planned for you! If you've arrived here from the very talented Alicia's Blog, then you are in the right place! If not, you can start over at the Lil' Inker Blog to make sure you don't miss any stops. As always, there are prizes hidden along the way, so be sure to leave a comment at every blog to better your chances of winning!
       
Here's a fun little card using the new Notebook Die and Notebook Doodle Stamps. I've seen images of doodles like these where they gradually change color, so I wanted to try to acheive that look on my card. I used 3 different colors of ink on the star doodle, and sort of rubbed the ink pads onto the image to try to get the colors to softly blend together. It took a few tries to get the look I wanted, but I think it worked out! I dug some coordinating cardstock out of my stash, and stamped it with the smaller doodles using Versamark Ink. I use the word "awesome" all the time... probably more than a grown woman should... but I am thrilled to now have that sentiment in my stamp collection! :)

Love the psychedelic effect of the tri-tone stamping! Very fun card, and personally, I don't think you can over-use the word AWESOME...
