Stretch Your Stamps 2: Day 1 and 2

I've been enjoying the videos and lessons from Stretch Your Stamps 2. Today I am going to have several posts so that I can share the cards to my gallery. Of course I won't get to every technique shown in the class before it is over but I want to make sure I add at least one card to each gallery. This card with for Days 1 and 2 where several ideas for using background stamps are shown including an emboss resist technique where you watercolor over the embossed background stamp. I die cut the word sentiment out of a paper done with the same technique.
