Personalized Cards from Stamptastic Friends

stamptastic friends blog hop

Stamptastic friends are getting personal this month. Our theme this month is a personalized card. I chose to create this card especially for one of our Grandchildren.

Technology is their game, so this card created with Tech Support fits the bill. I hope it brings a smile.

I paired the stamp set with the flip side of Hues of Happiness DSP. I like the painted effect of the paper and it gives the background some interest. All the small elements of the stamp set make for a very personalized card.

The balloons are die cut from InColor Glimmer paper and the candles are Daffodil Delight & Parakeet Party cardstock. Lots of bright colors are popping on this card! Both of these die cuts are from the Celebrate Tags dies. I love these dies!

Stamptastic Friends Share New Techniques

Hello Stamping Friends! The Stamptastic Friends have a treat for you today. Lots of different techniques.

stamptastic friends blog hop

Don’t you love learning new ways to use your stamps, paper, and ink? I sure do.

I tried something “new to me” this month. Coloring on white heat embossing. This technique is so cool. Not sure how I missed giving this a go a long time ago.

Cottage Rose

You start with heat embossing images in white on Basic Black cardstock. Then use your Watercolor Pencils to color the white embossed lines. It sort of gives it a subtle hint of color. After coloring buff it lightly with a paper towel or soft terry cloth. That helps smooth the color out.

Cottage Rose

Then die cut the images and assembled them on the card base. Shear ribbon and Iridescent Jewels add just the right touch of elegance.
