shower gift. Stamp it randomly in pastel colors

colors and use it as a base for personalized gift wrap. It is much

more economical than buying special stamping papers.! Try making

your own gift bags. Iron together inexpensive gift wrap and freezer

paper. Form the bag by folding the paper around a box. Use a sturdy

glue to hold the seams in place. Add ribbon or yarn handles.

The baby quilt makes a great background onto which

other stamps can be mounted. It is also very nice used

alone as the front of a baby announcement. But howeve

you use it, Im sure youll agree that half the fun is

coloring it! Try coloring alternating squares for a

checkerboard look, alternate rows and columns for a

gingham effect, or random squares for a crazy quilt. Try

adding patterns like tiny hearts, stripes, or dots to some

of the squares. How about coloring in red, white, and

blue with little stars for Independence Day? Or red and

green for Christmas.

These stamps resulted from my daughters

fourth grade class trip to Sutters Fort in

Sacramento, CA. The children wereimmersed in history for several weeks

prior to their day and night at the fort.

in the year 1848, learning about the lives

and travels of their characters. They

dressed in period clothing and lived like

the pioneers for a day and night. They

even got to ride in a real Calistoga wagon!

It was an experience none of us will ever

forget.

For a really fun get well card stamp the map and layer

onto a card. Over stamp with a road (9829-e) in black ink.

Even Lawrence Welk never knew

bubbles were this much fun! The

bubbles can be simply bubbles when

used with the bubble wand or as

bubbles coming up out of water. Or

they can be bubbles coming out of a

glass of soda or champagne. Or how

about out of a scary witchs brew?

They also make a terrific backgroundtexture when stamped repeatedly and

randomly. Used on their sides they can

be used as rocks and pebbles along a

path or at the edge of water in a beach

scene. Turn the small ones upside down

and they can be a tall blooming flower

in your garden scene. Use the small

bubbles as suds on a tub or a glass of

beer. If you have only the large bubble

and you need small bubbles for your

project, use only the low end of the

stamp by coloring only the smallest

bubbles with a water-based marker.

The easel can also be used as a

stand for a sign. Stamp

or write your favorite

message on it!

These scribble stars and trees are wonderful

for Christmas, but can be used for lots of

other things, too. The stars embossed in red

white and blue are great for Independence Day.

And they are super on a note of

encouragement for your favorite student.

Use the trees stamped in pale blue on a dark

white torn paper hill with a bit of glitter for a

romantic winter scene.

This music makes a

wonderful background or an

element in a collage. But it is

also is great as the main

image for a card. Emboss the

music with gold detail

embossing powder on a dark

card. I used it to make notecards for my daughters

favorite music teacher. I used

cream card stock and stamped

the music with vanilla ink. I

stamped Just a Note on the

inside in the same ink. It was

a BIG hit!

A pergamano technique

is very effective with

these images. Emboss the

image on the front of a

piece of vellum. Color

the image on the back

side with markers. With

the right side up, place

the image on a piece of

felt or fun foam. With a

ball stylus, carefully trace

around the outside edges

of the image. Usedecorative edge scissors

to cut a rectangle around

the image. Mount on a

card.

Pastel chalks are a

image in black ink. Color

the shadowed edge with

the chalk and smudge the

color into the rest of the

image. Use at least twoshades of the same color

or add a contrasting color

to add realism.

Remember that fruits

ripen unevenly! Spray

with a fixative to prevent

smudging.

These rose buds can make a very quick yet1200-d lovely card by using shadow

stamping inks and techniques. To make a shadow stamp that fits your image perfectly,

use deckle edged scissors to cut fun foam to the size of your wood mount. Attach the

foam to the back of the wood mount with double sided tape. Ink the craft foam with

sage green shadow ink and stamp on your card. Then ink the stem of the rose with the

sage green and the bud with soft rose. Stamp on the shadow. Add the saying in sage.

Add a small ribbon rose for embellishment.

with water-based markers, starting with the lightest color, and progressing toward the darkest. I prefer yellow, orange, and

red, with a touch of green. Spritz the palette with a fine mist of water and use just like a stamp pad to pick up the color. Re-

ink as needed.

background then adding the stamped images with glue.

The whole thing was then treated with a matte sealer.

with another layer of paper

behind them. The two layers

were glued together around

the edges, with a cotton ball

Splongee Tool

I call this tool a Splongee because that is what my

daughter named it when she was 4 years old!

Stamping with a Splongee was a fun thing to do

with her, and gave me great background paper,too!

Make a simple tool for creating fabulous

backgrounds.

Make a bundle of about 25 rubber bands. Try a

variety of widths, or stick with just one.

Different combinations will make a subtledifference in stamping.

Tightly tie the bundle with another rubber band.

Trim off the loop ends of the bands with a sharp

pair of scissors.

Ink the ends on a stamp pad as you would a

stamp. Stamp repeatedly onto paper. Re-ink as

needed.

Try tone on tone techniques, use a single color,

or stamp a rainbow..

Stamp lightly, or repeatedly for heaviercoverage.

Youll be amazed at the different backgrounds

you can create!

Faux Shadow StampsTo make a perfectly sized shadow stamp for any

of your stamps, cut a piece of white craft foam

to the size of your mount.

Trim it just a little smaller than the block using

either deckle edge or straight scissors.

Mount onto the back of your stamp using double

sided tape.

You can ink and stamp as you would with anystamp,

Play with the shadow by inking more heavily

around the edges, or only on the edges.


95/100


93

You can make the edge more interesting bytaking out some small nicks or by making it a

bit wavy.

Craft foam shapes can also be used to createinteresting shadows. Think about shapes you

can cut with your die cut machine!

I keep shadow stamps on the backs of some of my

stamps all the time since I really like to use them

with shadows. When I store these stamps, I storethem on my shelf rubber side out.


96/100

A Dozen Quick CardsInk the shadow side of your large stamp with the shadow color. Stamp it centered

horizontally, near the top of the card (the margin on the top should be about the

same size as the margins on the left and right).
