Random Stamping to Frame

This is a very easy and simple technique. I've actually prepared this simple tutorial for Stamp Enjoy in December.

Here are the steps.

1) Place your photograph onto the background paper and use a pencil to lightly trace it's edges on it. Remove the photograph.

2) Randomly, use various different stamps and colours of inks to stamp all around the traced edges. You could also lightly ink it to further enhanced the edges.

3) When you're satisfied with your stamping and inking, just attached the photograph on it. 

I'll be sharing my complete layout using this technique tomorrow. Check back for it!
