Hi Everyone! It is time again for another OLDIES challenge. This month the technique is "kissing." This is "kissing" one stamp to another. Here is the link to instructions.

Please use this technique on your project, upload it to the gallery using the heading OLDIES CHALLENGE and link it here to this post. That is all. I will be giving a random RAK also. I can't wait to see your projects!

Sounds very romantic!  Oh, and I like the technique a lot.  Thanks for hosting a fun new Oldies challenge!

Can't wait to try this.  Your pear is so beautiful.

You said to use a large image stamp.  I need to continue looking, but am not sure that I have one.  May have to use a digital stamp, is that OK. 

Now that the AIR challenges are over, I will start to work on this one.

The stamp does not need to be real large. A large stamp gives you a bigger palette to work with though. Digital stamps will not work for this.

The largest & most solid stamp I have is a frog (what else?  ). I inked it up & kissed it with another stamp. Then I stamped on white CS. I used an oval die to make the diecut & ran that thru an EF on the de-bossed side. Swiped it with yellow DI so the leaves would show.

The base is another EF & I added strips of yellow to it. My frog thinks it's a chameleon...Confused Frog

Great card, Daniel. Thanks for doing my challenge!

Stampwilly, you do not need to count this toward the RAK since it is not the technique you used, but I was messing around today and came up with an idea for "Stamp kissing" that involves one stamp and then just a piece of texture cardstock (for those people who might not have a suitable texture stamp).   It was so simple and really is a pleasing look.  I think I may share this on my blog too.

I hope to also do some stamp kissing with two stamps soon!  But this also got the task out of the way of making a kids card that I needed ASAP!

WTG, Heidi!  April's 'KISS' is just one version of the technique (as I'm sure she'll agree when she posts) 

'Kissing' can be done with stamp-to-stamp & the 'kissing stamp' doesn't have to be inked. When you do that the uninked stamp (your textured stock) leaves its imprint without adding a new color.

See how smart you are (but we all know that, pal  )?!

This is my card for this challenge.  I would like it more, if I had more stamps that would work for it. 

But after finding my base stamp and got to playing with it, it was a very fun challenge.

I tried it and posted it in the gallery.
I used a foam stamp that was blank in the center, I think it is for painting.
And stamped a tree inside it and after trying with lots of different combos I liked this one.
Made it into birthday card maybe foe a guy?

[howdyheidi]

Yankee, great idea to try a foam stamp as they tend to have a lot of space to work with!

I have tried kissing one stamp to another but never 2-3 stamps that will be a big challenge for me

Thanks to Ann, Heidi and Yankee for doing the challenge. The cards look wonderful and I am glad you tried the challenge and put your own twists to it!

I don't have many bold stamps but I found this one that I think worked well, first time kissing two stamps to another stamp
