This stamp is the Welcome Baby Collage, isn't it lovely? I wanted to keep the vintage look throughout my design, so I used close to cocoa to stamp the image, the edges are torn ever so slightly and distressed, I've added ivory lace, antique finish brads and faux stitching! The papers are K&co.
This stamp was a joy to work with, it took the ink well and stamped clean! Della has a nice collection of collage type stamps among the wide variety of images she offers.
