I thought I'd share some of my favorite tips with you today.
- how to use a ruler – some people find this extremely challenging
- standard card sizes and layers
- which ink to use when coloring with markers
First up is the ruler and card measurements. Understanding measurements can make card making so much easier!
I hope the above graphic helps you when you're creating a card. Save it or print it out.

Next I have a helpful photo for coloring your stamped images. It's very important to use the correct ink to prevent smearing as you color.
I do also want to share a few more tips for coloring:
- Use Stazon ink when coloring with colored pencils, blender pens, water painters or when picking up our Classic ink from your ink pad.

Lastly is a list of the three types of stamps Stampin' Up! offers. It might be hard to read so I'll share the details in this list:
- Photopolymer stamps are entirely transparent and adhere to your clear block. They're flexible and easy to use; especially with 2-step use.
- Clink stamps are made of high-quality rubber. They cling like crazy to our clear blocks.
- Distinktive stamps are a photo-realistic image with a special texture that give added depth and dimension with a single stamp.
*I hope one or more of these tips help you. Let me know which one or two you learned from today.
