Fox in Flowers

 

Use digital papers and a digital stamp to create these beautiful fox and flowers cards


Last week I used a pre-coloured digital stamp, but this week I show you how you can use a black and white outline digital stamp to make a beautiful card. I have also bought and downloaded the papers to use for backing papers.

Digital stamps and backing papers are a great option if, like me, you do not have access to a local craft shop. It also allows you to easily store the images and only print what you need. Alot of the time you can re-size the images too, so they can fit your particular project. They do not need to be printed onto fancy papers either. I've used a canon printer and a lightweight card and just selected the standard print quality of the printer.

This week I've made two slightly different cards but using the same image.
