Hi everyone!
Its time for another Studio AE from Technique Tuesday blog hop! Today we are featuring January's kit, Bring on the Love:
This is such a nice collection of sentiments. Perfect for Valentines or scrapbook pages.
Today I made a Valentine with one of the solid image stamps in the set:
Do not be scared of these solid images! I used Memento ink here. I think Memento gives a nice, even coverage and keeps the details. It also can be used with Copic markers. I've also gotten good results with Colorbox chalk inks, Jenni Bowlin ink, and Palette inks. What I do, after I ink up the image I take a good look at the surface to be sure it is inked evenly and that there are no lint specks. Then take a deep breath, press the stamp to the paper and hope for the best. Sometimes it takes a few tries before I get one I'm happy with :) but it can be done!
There are a few other stops on today's hop:

Fabulous card, Laura! I love the colors. One trick I use with solid images like this one is to ink my stamp first with Versa Mark and then add my color ink directly on top of that before stamping the image. Works every time!
I really love your card, Laura.
