Stretch Your Stamps with Kelly and W & W

One of these years I'm going to be able to participate in World Card Making Day.  It seems that is always when I'm busiest.   Kelly Griglione issued a challenge from the Winnie and Walter blog on that day to "Stretch Your Stamps".  You know.  Look at them in a new way.  I don't have a ton of image stamps other than flowers but I even found a flower stamp that I could use for the challenge.

Believe it or not those fireworks are a dandelion stamp from MFT.  I embossed them in gold, white and red.  The red sank into the navy cardstock so with the help of my MISTI, I first embossed in white and then stamped over it with VersaMark and embossed it again in red.    The sentiment from W&W's Let's Party was also embossed in gold.  I added a little border of red sparkly paper for some added sizzle.

Thanks for the challenge, Kelly.  I'll keep looking for new ways to stretch my stamps.
