Technique Tuesday: Stampendous Parrot!

With summer fast approaching I felt like creating something bright, sunny, and tropical! What could feel more summer and tropical than Cling Jumbo Parrot Rubber Stamp! I love this stamp, and my photo of relaxing on the beach are a perfect match for my layout.

I used the Cling Jumbo Parrot Rubber Stamp to add some tropical flair, and I used PenPattern Petal Rubber Stamp to create a red and white Hawaiian print.

 To add some texture to the corners I used a Dreamweaver Fern stencil and Stampendous Frantage Embossing Enamels in Aged Teal. I also stamped Stampendous Relax Enjoy Rubber Stamp with VersaMark ink and heat set some  black Detail Embossing Powders. I also used Stampendous Dream Text Stamp, and Distress Ink Broken China to add ink to the edges of my layout.

 To create a sandy beach feel along the bottom of the layout I used Spoonful Gold Dust Embossing Plus Kit.

I love how fun and vibrant this turned out and Stampendous product are perfect for adding all that yummy texture that I love on a layout! Try using the parrot stamp for one of your creative projects! Or Stampendous embossing products, and Dreamweaver stencils to add texture to your projects!
