UPDATE:
I made it to the Froggin' Fantastic Four with this card check it out here.
I love Lily Pad Blog and saw a new challenge for a technique called 'Stamp Kissing'.
I'd never heard of this nor tried it so I thought today was a good time to learn something new! Needless to say I'm entering it into the Kissing Challenge at Lily Pad. I found the hardest part was finding the two cards to kiss together to make a nice blend.
My 'kissing stamps' were the flower branch from My Cute Stamps
the Ashley's Blossoms set
the Ashley's Blossoms set
and a script background stamp from Inkadinkado
I added some papers from the 6x6 paper pad by
Melissa Frances called 5th Avenue

The inside is the same sheet of paper fussy cut to make the
corner blossom
The card base is Kraft Cardstock
This gorgeous ribbon was a closeout Offray ribbon (3 yards for 50 cnets!!)
from a local scrapbook store
I also used the script stamp on the backround mat
Here you can see how the branch stamp kissed
the script backround stamp and gave it a hint of script here and there

Just lovely! Your blend of papers and colors is feminine and lovely.
So pretty, Patti! And that really IS the hardest part of the technique - choosing the right stamps. For your first ever try at "kissing," this turned out beautifully! Thanks for playing with us at Lily Pad Cards!
It's pretty, Patti....
Beautiful! The colors are so soft. Love the delicate trim. Thanks for sharing.

Your card is so beautiful! The subtle colors and feminine details make it really special! For your first effort at stamp kissing you certainly knocked it out of the park (if you don't mind my baseball metaphor). The 2 stamps you chose are so perfect together, such a sweet and delicate result. I'm so glad you joined us for this challenge at Lily Pad Cards.
What a beauty Patti!!! Love all those pastels and details! Thank you for joining the fun at lilypad cards.
I'm rather late making the rounds - my life exploded - :~D What a beautiful and feminine card - I love all these muted shades! Thank you so much for playing and sharing at the Lily Pad!. Hugs & Blessings....
Wonderful card! The inside is just as lovely as the out.
Congratulations on being one of the Froggin' Fantastic Four.
I absolutely love the subtle beauty of your card. I am going to add it to my Pinterest board for inspiration!
