DOstamping Tips:

  • The floral image I used actually has "handmade by:" in the middle.  A great way to mark the back of you cards.  
  • But I wanted to use the image as my focal point.  That's easy to do by just covering up of the middle with a sentiment.
  • On a scrap of white, stamp floral/handmade by image with Old Olive ink.  Then color with Stampin' Write markers - using the bullet tip:
    • leaves with Old Olive
    • flowers with Fresh Freesia
    • dot flower center with Gorgeous Grape
    • cut out with 2" Circle Punch

I love the way this give that image dual purposes - yay!

The Handmade Designs stamp set will automatically be added to your "cart" when you choose Option 1 when JOINING my STARS Team HERE.  Note: you'll need to choose the two Stampin' Write Marker sets as directed.

Enjoy~Dawn O

DOstamping Sale-a-Bration Inspiration - Day #1: Create Background Paper with Natural Botanicals!

Welcome to DOstamping Sale-a-Bration Inspiration - Day #1!

Stampin Up! Natural Botanicals One Sheet Wonder Cards by Dawn Olchefske #dostamping #HowdSheDOthat #cardmaking 2

Today I'm featuring the following Sale-a-Bration products:

  • Newly added Level I choice, Natural Botanicals stamp set (SAB# 168095)
  • Level I choice, Toadstool Gardens 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper (164942)

 

Stampin Up! Natural Botanicals One Sheet Wonder #DOstampingt Tip by Dawn Olchefske #dostamping #HowdSheDOthat #cardmaking

I created my own background paper by using a half sheet of 8-1/8" x 11" white cardstock (5-1/2" x 8-1/2").  Also know as a One Sheet Wonder.  I cut it up to get 7 cards!  

DOstamping Tips:

  • Using the Natural Botanicals stamp set.  This is a "reversals" stamp set.  Meaning the detailed image is on one side and the solid image is on the other side of the same stamp.  Stamp as follows:
    • Start with largest image first, working down to the smallest image
    • Stamp large leaf outline image with Granny Apple Green ink, then reverse side with Soft Seafoam ink
    • Stamp flower with stem outline image with Pumpkin Pie ink, then reverse side with Peach Pie ink (stamped off)
    • Stamp small flower outline image with Melon Mambo ink, then reverse side with Pretty in Pink ink
  • When done stamping the entire piece, cut as follows:
    • Cut the piece in half the long way at 2-3/4", then cut one piece into 3 pieces of 2-3/4" squares (there will be a small piece leftover)
    • Cut the other piece into 4 pieces of 2-1/8" x 2-3/4"
