I'm so excite to share this fun & unique idea! I created two templates that help you make 5 cards at a time. It's addicting & you'll be looking at your stamps in a whole new way!
I shared this on last week's Facebook Live and it was a hit! It's so fun to do.
For these cards I used the Merry Snowflakes stamp set (seen here) & Pool Party, Bermuda Bay & Highland Heather inks. The card stock is White, Gorgeous Grape, Bermuda Bay & Coastal Cabana. If you follow me you know these are some of my favorite colors! They're perfect for snowflakes.
Below are the templates. Remember these are 8 1/2" X 11" to start with. For these cards I stamped before I cut but you can certainly cut your pieces first if you'd like to.
As you can see these templates have very little waste.
Before I stamped I scored on the 4 3/4" and 3 1/2" lines leaving the piece intact. You could also draw a light pencil mark so you know where to stamp.
And here is how the White card stock is stamped. (I forgot to take a photo before I cut and layered them.)
Can you see that the images concentrate on two sides of each piece leaving one corner free & clear? Basically you're stamping down the middle and on each of the lines. This keeps the cards from being too busy.
I added a few iridescent Wonderful snowflakes (seen here) to some of them; I cannot get enough of these! They're such a great size & value – you get 24 for $6.
I hope you watch the video below to see the tips & tricks on using these templates.
Below is the video so you can see how it's done.
