Happy Tuesday!!! That means I have a fun technique to share with you today! This one is super fun and simple and you can use your favorite colors!!!
Father’s Day is right around the corner!! Now is the time to start working on your cards. The New Thoughtful Banners Stamp Set is perfect for occasions like these. There are 53 images in this stamp set that you can build greetings like the card above or go simple like Hello! All of the images stamped on this card are from this stamp set!
For this card, I started with a Crumb Cake card base. Then I took a piece of Dapper Denim (5-1/2″ x 3) and Emerald Envy (4-1/2″ x 3″) and layered them down the center. With a piece of Whisper White measuring 3-1/2″, I stamped the bar image from the Thoughtful Banners Stamp Set. I started with Dapper Denim and stamped in the middle and then moved it up a smidge and stamped again and then again. I did the same thing with the Emerald Envy. There are two reasons I did this – 1. Getting the bar lined up is easiest when you don’t take it away for more ink. Just move the stamp up a little and stamp again. 2. I like the faded look so that you can stamp some of the greetings on top of the bar without needing black. Of course, you can always use a Stamp-A-Ma-Jig for a perfect line up. I stamped the Have A and Blessed in Dapper Denim. I stamped Fun and Father’s Day in Emerald Envy. For the amazing, I stamped the banner image in Dapper Denim onto scrap cardstock and the amazing in Emerald Envy. I used the coordinating Duet Punch (Bundle & Save 10%) to punch it out. I added the greeting to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals. It’s that simple. You can create lots of different greeting combinations and color combinations with the card style.
What colors would you use for the card style? Let me know in the comment below! I think a red, orange, yellow combination would be super fun!
