Today’s Color My Story Monday is all about tone-on-tone stamping — stamping Lemon Lolly ink directly onto Lemon Lolly cardstock to build a soft patterned background.
It’s a gentle technique.
Instead of high contrast, we’re building texture through repetition.
I love tone-on-tone for backgrounds because it:
• Adds interest without distraction
• Creates cohesion
• Feels calm and steady
• Allows the focal image to shine
There’s something meditative about repeating a stamped image across a page in the same color family.
No drama.
No pressure.
Just rhythm.
In a season of cultivation, this technique feels right.
Growth doesn’t always look bold.
Sometimes it looks like subtle layering.
