This weeks Product Spotlight: “One For All“ stamp set

p. 37 Annual Catalog

   Surprise!! More purple!! And paired again with that Gorgeous Granny Apple Green…YUM!! If you scroll down I’ll show you how I stamped the words and the image seperate from each other. I’m thinking this card could be used for getting well wishes, I miss you, I love you or even Valentines Day!

 

Which method I use to partially ink a stamp usually depends on these two things, one the image shape and where I want it inked and two, how dark I want the ink to be.

  For today’s card I used the Country Lane Designer Series Paper from the 2018 Holiday Catalog…which you can order from Today!! Even though it is a Fall theme, I think you could use this paper anytime of year. I LOVE the color combination…I’m partial to anything purple!

Have the Best Day Ever

This weeks Product Spotlight: “One For All“ stamp set

p.37 Annual Catalog

  If you are new to stamping this is a great set to start with.  It has some basic sentiments, “Happy Birthday” and “Thank You” are self-explanatory, “Sending Hugs” and “Have the Best Day Ever” could be many different occasions. You would just need a Stampin’ Pad, (or two or three 🙂 ) the Note Cards & Envelopes pack, a postage stamp and you’re ready to make and send a card! Check back on my blog this week if you want to see more cards from this set!

  Be sure and scroll down to see the tip on heat embossing. What do you do when you don’t have the right color of embossing powder?

1WMo18

   If you want an image to stand out more than just the flat stamped image, you can always heat emboss. If you don’t have the right color of embossing powder…no worries…this is what you do:

1. Stamp your image with the Stamparatus in whatever color you want. 2. Now, using Versamark, stamp your image again. (making sure to not move the stamp)

3. Apply Clear Stampin’ Emboss powder and heat until melted. Voila` you have any color embossing you’d like!

The picture here looks like it’s black ink…the photographer is the problem  😉 …It’s actually Night of Navy ink.
