Hello stampers! Today we have lots of projects to share with you all using the Foliage stamp set:
This stamp set contains different plants and branches that can be used for backgrounds and accents for your projects. Some of the foliage has an Asian flavour, so it co-ordinates really well with the Kimono Collection!
Let's take a look at some ideas on how these stamps can be used:
I love that I now have a set of stamps that I can use to make some nice oriental backgrounds!
Here I used the largest image in the Foliage set to make a background for the geisha I fussy cut from the Kimono Photochips sheet. I stamped the tree onto a piece of cardstock I had sponged with Wild Honey and Rusty Hinge Distress Ink. A scrap of vintage lace, some twine, and a word from the
Kimono Wordstrip finish this card off.

Details from Michelle:
I stamped the Foilage three times with black ink on crimson cardstock and also swipped the edges with the black inkpad then heat embossed (including edges) using sparkly embossing powder. I matted the Kimono Photochip and Wordstrip several times each before mounting on the card.

Details from Michelle:
On a scrap piece of cardstock I stamped the Foilage with Archival Plum ink and distressed the edges then swipped black in over the edges and heat embossed with sparkly embossing powder. I used a medium Kimono Montage image mounted with foam tape. This would make a great little bookmark!

Details from Teresa:
A clean and simple card here - I stamped the branches with Library Green Archival ink, and added some dots with Viva Decor Glitter Liner in green. It adds dimension and intensifies the colour with just a hint of glitter. The chipboard birdcage is from Twiddleybitz, and I used a sponge to gently apply some Viva Decor Precious Metal Colour in Olive green. I then added the old coin and some gold cord to finish it off.

Details from Michelle:
I stamped a plain ATC with Foilage and Archival Sepia to form the background and then distressed the ATC using Distress Inks (Peeled Paint & Mustard Seed) and swiped over a black inkpad on the edges. I used a large and small Kimono Montage image which is foam mounted with a Wordstrip.

Details from Michelle:
I cut three pieces of kraft cardstock and stamped the Foilage with red and black ink then distressed the edges with Distress Inks. I used 2 small and 1 medium Montage image, foam mounting the centre on and finishing it with a Wordstrip and foam tape.
So there you go stampers... lots of ideas using the Foliage stamp set! Hope these inspired you! Thanks for dropping by :)
