I love Overlays!
There is a big variety out there in crafting land. But sometimes you just want to have a specific image or colour. No problem at all! How about creating your own Overlay?!

You will need a transparency to stamp on, a piece of paper, a permanent ink, an acrylic block and your favourite stamp. I used Penny Johnson´s “Chanson d´amour”.
Adhere the clear stamp onto the acrylic block and use your permanent ink on it. Put a piece of paper beneath the transparency, this will allow you to see exactly where to stamp.
Stamp the image as often as you like. Voilá here is your Overlay. Cut it and use it on your project
Hope you liked this tutorial, enjoy creating your own Overlay!
