I took the easy way out when I stamped my greetings.  Here are the steps for perfect stamping using the Stamparatus:

1. I die-cut a bunch of the White labels (from the Hippo & Friends dies) first. 
2. Then I placed the frame left over from die-cutting on my Stamparatus. 
3. Lay your clean stamp on the label, positioning it in place. 
4. Close the clear plate to 'grab' the stamp. 
5. Ink the stamp and close the plate to stamp. 
6. Repeat!

• CUTE Pillowbox ‘treat box’ you’ll love!

  September 21, 2022

  ---

  I made this cute box using the Pretty Pillow Box dies.  Does it look like a pumpkin to you?  

  Save

  It does use the Pretty Pillow box dies for the flat shape of the front of this box, but the box itself is made from a piece of card stock (see measurements below). I found this idea from fellow demonstrator Lynda Emerson.  As usual I changed it up a bit from hers. 

  Products used:

  Crumb Cake card stock, He’s the Man DSP, strips of Mossy Meadow for apple die trim & for the leaves die-cuts, Pretty Pillow Box dies seen here, Stylish Shapes (for the circle die-cut), Penned Flower & Apple Blossom dies, Stripes & Spatters EF, Linen Thread for the bow, Simply Scored Scoring tool

  The inside of the box would hold quite a few treats; it's a good size!  

  Save

  Measurements:

  • Crumb Cake 5 ¼” X 7 ¼” scored at 2" on all 4 sides, plus two die-cut pillow box pieces
  • He’s the Man DSP 2 ¼” X 4 ½”

  Here is what the Pretty Pillow box dies look like:

  Here are all of the projects I made. The other two cards feature the Hello Harvest bundle.

• Use the stamp in a new way on this card! Hello Harvest projects

  September 20, 2022

  ---

  Here's a pretty card I shared on last week's FB live video; it features the Hello Harvest bundle. 

  Save

  I cased the idea from my friend Dawn Olchefske; changing it up a bit.  The main floral image is stamped twice (once upside down) and the greeting covers where they meet.  You can see this image in the stamp set below. 

  It might look like there's an entire strip of designer paper under the main card layers.  But it's just a few small pieces of the Rustic Harvest DSP at the top & bottom of the Vanilla card. Check out the Hello Harvest bundle here.  

  Save

  I colored the floral image in with Blends markers in Daffodil, Fresh Freesia, Light Old Olive and Calypso Coral.  I also added a bit of color to the pretty greeting banner.  

  Measurements are: 

  • Vanilla 5 ½” X 8 ½”, 3 ½” X 4 ½” & scrap for greeting
  • Espresso 3 5/8” X 4 5/8”
  • DSP is 1” X 2 ¼”
