Paper Crafts Magazine: Stamp It! 3 Ways Blog Hop

PC20112

Welcome to the Stamp It! 3 Ways blog hop! This new special issue from Paper Crafts magazine is now available. Its stamping, all stamping!! What I love about this issue is how its set up. Three designers were given the same stamp set and they each created a card based on their own style. The creative ways each designer used the stamps is astounding! So much creativity! And so many ways to be inspired to use stamp sets in your stash.

Today I am using one of the stamp sets I used in the issue, My Mind’s Eye Lost and Found Princess stamps.

charming CU

I stamped the pennants onto white cardstock with aqua ink. Then I added a piece of twine to the card base. Each of the pennants was cut out and foam mounted to the card. The butterfly was stamped with yellow ink, cut out and foam mounted. The sentiment fit perfectly between the embossed details.

The embossing on the background was created by Spellbinders Paper Arts latest; M-Bossabilities!! These dual-sided embossing folders are brilliant and create such a deep impression! This folder is called Elite. M-Bossabilities will be available for ordering at CHA-W. So look for them soon at your favorite store!!

Check out these talented stampers and see what they have created for today!

Stunning card! I think this has to be my favourite out of all the wonderful cards on the hop.
My favourite stamp set is any one of Lawn Fawn's amazing stamps. Second would be Penny Black's Winter Wonderland.
