Have you ever had a stamp that you just loved but all the color combinations you try, just don't do anything for you? I love the big background Sunflower stamp, and nothing I did was clicking, so with a box full of Stampin' Up designer series paper, I decided to make my own. Oh no, my "self" said here comes the mess! I ignored that little voice and pulled out a 12×12 piece of Very Vanilla Card stock, 3 reinkers, a baby wipe and a piece of plastic. You just need something to put under the baby wipe. Then I took my Pear Pizazz reinker and put a few drops in the center, then a circle of drops of Peach Parfait around the Pear Pizazz, it should be starting to look like a bulls eye. The last color was Daffodil Delight, again drop the reinker around the last circle. It make take a few minutes to spread, your baby wipe will look something like this.
Now you are ready to stamp, place your stamp on the baby wipe and stamp randomly all over a 12 x 12 piece of very vanilla card stock. After it dries you can cut it into sections and use as you would designer series paper. I made 10 cards from that 12 x 12 sheet of paper. Here they are;
This is a new class that I'll be having on Sunday, Aug 21st, @ 2 pm -5pm, fee is $20, for 10 cards envelopes, a band to hold them and instructions. If you'd like to join us, please RSVP now.
