Triple Stamp Birthday

Hello Dear Stampers! Today I have a technique I love – the triple stamp technique. Once I learned it I just loved it. I use it every once in a while.

It’s really not difficult at all but really pops. I used the Blended Seasons Stamp Set which was a special offer. You stamp then cut out the pieces – your eyes do the rest of putting it all together.

 

 

Using the Stampin’ Blends makes such a difference with coloring. You can get depth and highlights. If you haven’t tried them yet you really should. I can guarantee you will love them!

 

Stampin’ Up! Products Used:

Stamp Sets – Blended Seasons SS (R), Painted Glass SS (R), Painted Glass Stamp Set (R)

Ink – Memento Tuxedo Black

Paper – Purple Posy, Whisper White, Black

Accessories – Rectangle Stitched Dies, Stampin’ Blends

 

Hope you enjoyed today’s card and will try out the triple stamped technique. If you have any questions…just send me an email.

Until next time…Happy Stamping!    Donna

 

Pocketful of Happiness

Hello Stampers!  Hope you are all well and having fun stamping. 

My card today is bright and cheery and uses the Pocketful of Happiness Stamp Set. 

The Leaf Punch made this card come to life!

 

I am hooked on the Stitched Labels Dies – especially this one!

I apologize for the colors – I tried using Auto correct but I’m not happy about it. 

 

Stampin’ Up! Products Used:

Stamp Sets – Pocketful of Happiness SS, Floral Essence SS

Ink – Memento Tuxedo Black

Paper – Pretty Peacock, Pineapple Punch, Pool Party, Whisper White

Accessories – Stitched Labels Dies, Leaf Punch, Itty Bitty Flower Punch (R), Blends

 

Here’s a quick view of another Birthday Card. Unfortunately I only took one photo before mailing it out. 

 

Just a quick pop in to show you a couple birthday cards. I have two more before I get to Valentine Cards.

Have a wonderful day and Happy Stamping!    Donna

Thank You Cards

Hello Stampers!  Today I have three quick and easy Thank You Card ideas for you.

I didn’t use any stamp sets or ink on this one. The inside is blank to write your own note of thanks. The paper I used is Come to Gather DSP, Pretty Peacock, Mint Macaron and Whisper White. I accessorized with Well Written Dies and Gathered Leaves Dies. Everything is popped up with dimensionals except the word “thanks”.

 

I used Healing Hugs Stamp Set; Melon Mambo & Granny Apple Green Ink; Purple Posy, Black & Whisper White Cardstock,; Thank You Die

The photo shows the background a bit yellow but it is really Whisper White. Again the inside is blank for your own message.

 

I really like the way this card turned out. Remember…there are a lot of ways to use DSP. On this card it makes a great background.

I used more items on this card even though it looks simple:  Floral Essence & Daisy Delight Stamp Sets; Memento Tuxedo Black & Blueberry Bushel Ink; Blueberry Bushel, Whisper White, Mossy Meadow, Crushed Curry Cardstock and Perennial Essence DSP; Sprig Punch, Perennial Flower Punch, Wild Rose Dies, 3/8″ Circle Punch and Balmy Blue Ribbon.

Hope you enjoyed seeing these cards. I have some birthday cards for you in my next post and then I’ll have Valentine cards. 🙂

Happy Stamping!    Donna
