| Some of the additional materials |
The best thing about this easy technique is that even though the final card looks like I stamped tone on tone I didn't. I actually used a Versamark ink pad this is a watermark type ink that goes on sort of clear like this.

Anyhow, I just stamped my image several times as you can see in the picture. I made sure that the image ran off the page if you're worried about the ink getting on your work surface you can use a scrap piece of copy paper under the card to protect it. You could leave the card like this but I always like to give my cards a purpose. I decided to use the sentiment "sending smiles" so that I could send it to someone who maybe needed a pick me up. I also layered it to give it a bit of dimension. That wasn't quiet right so I added dimensionals for some more "pop". Below is a picture of the final project. Can you believe the only time I used a colored ink pad was to add sending smiles to the card?
