Technique Tuesday - September - Simple Stamping

The Crafty Collaborations Team is comprised of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from around the world. Each month we participate in several collaborative projects, including Blog Hops, like this one to inspire all of us in our passion for crafting. Our Goal is to create, share, and inspire every crafter to keep our creative energy flowing.

Today features the monthly Technique Tuesday projects where the team will share Simple Stamping techniques.

Simple stamping is often referred to as 'stamps, ink & paper'. I often find it difficult to do 'less' on a card because I love adding depth & dimension to a card. However, if you run across people who have never stamped or paper crafted before, the process can be intimidating. Simple, really is best to start out. 

This card is as simple as it gets. I cut the designer series paper and stamped directly on it before adhering it to the card base. Card base is simply 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 card stock, folded in half. The designer paper is the star of the card. 

Here is another card with simple stamping, but I stepped it up with die cut elements which would require a Stampin' Cut & Emboss machine along with a set of dies. 

Card Details

• Stamps
• Kindness Expressions 
• Paper
• Basic White Thick card base 5 1/2 x 8 1/2, score/fold in half (4 14)
• Ink
• Tuxedo Black Memento ink 
• Other
• Paper Trimmer is an essential tool when paper crafting. 
• Adhesives: Seal or Multipurpose glue

Now Let's dig into more collaborative fun. Grab a beverage, sit back, and enjoy the hop! I hope you find awesome ideas and inspiration for simple projects.

Share it Sunday Blog Hop - August 2023

The Crafty Collaborations Team is comprised of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from around the world. Each month we participate in several collaborative projects, including Blog Hops, like this one to inspire all of us in our passion for crafting. Our Goal is to create, share, and inspire every crafter to keep our creative energy flowing.

 

Today features the 'monthly Share It Sunday' projects where the team shares any project that have been working on. 

In July, I attended a local leadership event in MN called Create & Connect. For the event we were encouraged to create card Swaps. This is a full card using current Stampin' Up! products to trade with other Demonstrators at the event. I created 26 cards using various designs of Designer series paper, mostly from the Delightfully Eclectic 12 x 12 DSP. 

The cards were simply, quick & easy to assemble. The Black & White card was for none other than Stampin' Up! CEO Sara Douglass who attended the event! I was so excited to meet her. I follow all her videos and FB live demonstrations and have seen her speak at other on-line events. I've always found her to be very genuine and down to earth. Meeting her in person simply affirmed my opinion of her. It was so fun!!

#DOswts417 - Color Combo Inspiration Hop

Welcome to the DO Stamper Stars Blog Hop. I am a member of the DO Stamper Stars team which is comprised of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators who are part of Dawn Olchefkse's leader team. Each month we participate in 2 Blog Hops, like this one, to inspire all of us in our passion for crafting. Our Goal is to create, share, and inspire every crafter to keep our creative energy flowing.

Today's inspiration is using the above three colors. When I saw these colors, I immediately thought of the Delightfully Eclectic 12 x 12 DSP which I have many scraps in my stash. I picked three designs with the matching the color combo. Based on the size of the scraps I came up with the below card. 

The Mix & Match of various DSP scrap designs can work really well in many different card designs. Adding the lovely Bubble Bath ribbon is a nice finishing touch to the card.
