  • Gears & Textures – Masculine part 2

    Recently on my Facebook Live I created with the Gears & Textures Stamp Set. You can see other cards I created with this set here. After the first three cards I created I wanted to change it up a bit and using the masking technique I got to work and used a post it note to cover over a section of the card. I then proceeded to stamp the images randomly over the card, overlapping the post it. Using blending brushes and Old Olive ink I added some ink over the card front.

    Once I’d finished stamping and adding ink I peeled back the post it to reveal my card and then stamped my sentiment in the blank space. Then layered each card front onto coordinating card stock. Really #simplestamping cards for you to recreate with a bonus masking technique thrown in.

  • Balloon Celebration Card Set

    The Balloon Celebration Stamp set is a versatile set that can be used for male and female cards.
    I’ve been asked to prepare a class using this stamp set and the matching Balloon punch.  The designs are gorgeous with many inspired by Pinterest and one card changed up from an Ice Cream stamp set class that was designed by Stampin’ Up!

    I was asked for birthday cards and male and female cards and the cards are in the above photo.  I also decided to make a matching card.  So I made a male and female card of each design using the same colours and I was really happy with how they all turned out.
