This stamp set makes creating cards pretty easy because the stamp is the focal point of the card. I colored the label with markers so that I could get several colors on the stamp at the same time. Do you know how to do that?
1. Ink the back of the stamp set with different colored markers.
2. Huff on the back of the stamp (blow on it to make sure the ink is moist). I remember at one Stampin'Up! event they called it doing the Darth Vader. It does sound like that doesn't it.
3. Stamp your image on card stock.
Supplies
Foil Snowflakes
Holly embossing folder
Christmas Around the World designer paper
Real Red card stock
Markers
Come back later today for more information about the Stamparatus and tomorrow to see how the stamp set Labels to Love can be used in a different way for Christmas.
It was so much fun to open the September Paper Pumpkin kit and see the test tubes...16 of them. And then to try and think of many different ways the tubes can be used. One was to put some Halloween candy in the tube. Then I found a video by Dawn Griffin that showed how to make this cute and easy treat holder. We will be making this and the last treat holder in my Halloween Fun class.
This has been a fun Halloween Week. I am off to see my son Brian get married. It will be a fun-filled family time weekend. Can't wait. An extra perk will be seeing most of my grandchildren at the same time. Hope your weekend will be a good one also.
Come back next week to see what I will be posting then.
In the Meadow was the stamp set that jumped off the page of the Occasions catalog as my favorite. I was so glad to find out that it will be carried over into the new catalog. Because of that I decided to feature this stamp set this week. Many of the samples I will be sharing have come from my friend Robin Armbrecht. She is so very creative and her style of stamping matches mine. Here is what I like about this card.
1. The trees jump out at me because they have been added on card stock that has been placed over the mountains.
2. The mountains look great as a background piece.
3. The colors of the card are some of my favorites, Mossy Meadow and Lost Lagoon. I will miss them as they are retiring in-colors.
Check back tomorrow to see a great technique card made with this wonderful stamp set.
