I have a stamp that is a collage of tropical images. More Hawaiin then Mexican, but I decided to go with it anyway. I sprayed my stamp with a green Mist and stamped down. Than I cleaned off my stamp by rubbing it off on the top and lower edge of my paper.
Glimmer Mist stamped this way is not going to give you a sharp, clean image. Instead you get the grungy look you see below. Rubbing the remaining ink on the paper edges adds to the grunge :)
Then I decided on a challenge for myself.
Only use stickers on this page.
No patterned paper, no flowers, no lumpy embellishements. I counted the MM decorative tape as a sticker.
When I first started scrapbooking I used A LOT of stickers. Then there was a period of time when I thought all stickers were not 'cool', even alphabet stickers. There are so many neat sticker designs out there and I had a sheet of Cosmo Cricket "Salt Air" stickers that I hadn't broken open yet. I wasn't sure about mermaid stickers for a boy page, but I found a spot for them ;)
If you try this challenge I would love to see your page!
