This card is a prime example of my battle with clear stamps. Although the birds turned out fine, the sentiment I had to stamp twice because the center did not even touch the paper. I had to push so hard it blurred the letters. Then, the little limb below is thick and not crisp like it should be. They just make me sad because there are so many wonderful images in clear stamps, like these birds. I love how irritated they look. Maybe they look so irritated because they know they are a pain to use. I will figure them out though, I will not let the birds win this battle and I am not scared of them, no matter how mean they look.
On this card I used Stampin Up Ink - Really Rust and Old Olive and Inkadinkado Stamps - Bird Assortment. I masked the edge with 2 torn post-in-notes and rubbed the Really Rust ink pad directly on the card front.
