Technique Tuesday - Generation Stamping

Here is a 6 x 6 page from the swap I participated in created by Marlene Lund, CTMH Independent Consultant, to show the generation stamping technique. It is easy and a great way to use just one color for multiply shades.

Generation Stamping

• Ink up stamp, making sure to get full, even coverage. Stamp onto paper. This is 1st generation.
• Without re-inking, stamping image again for 2nd generation.
• Repeat without re-inking for 3rd generation.

Below is a card where I took this same stamp set and made a birthday card using generation stamping. I used Hydrangea ink instead of Holiday Red.
Other materials used are all CTMH:

• Birthday Bash stamp set
  
• For Every Occasion stamp set (2007 April stamp of the month)
• White Daisy cardstock
• Clover Meadow cardstock
• Topiary brads
• Star Spangled Blue ink

Your turn to try this! Have fun!
