#stampinup #faithfulinkspirations #ManicMonday #simplestamping If you’re in a hurry to make a card, one of the quickest things to do is grab a two-step stamp set. What’s that? Well, it’s a stamp set that has two elements for each image–usually one for the outline and one for the filler. The “Vibrant Vases” stamp set is an adorable set that will help you make that quick card you need in a hurry!
I started with a basic layout–a 3-3/4″ by 5″ Whisper White Card Stock panel, a 3-7/8″ by 5-1/8″ Blueberry Bushel Card Stock mat, and a Thick Whisper White Card Stock card base, cut lengthwise. Although it’s not Protip Tuesday–I’ll give you one today anyway. If you pre-cut and score your Thick Whisper White Card Stock card bases and your basic Whisper White 3-3/4″ by 5″ card stock panel, you’ll have supplies at the ready when you’re in a hurry (just sayin’).
I stamped a sentiment from “Varied Vases” in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink onto the bottom corner of the Whisper White panel. I stamped the solid vase image in Blueberry Bushel Ink, stamped off once, and then stamped the filigreed vase image on top. Where I “missed” a little bit, I used a Blender Pen to spread ink to the white space. Hey! Another freebie Protip!
Next, I stamped the daisies in Tuxedo Black and filled in the flowers with the matching stamp using Daffodil Delight Ink. Again, I used a Blender Pen to fill in the parts I didn’t quite get perfectly placed. I stamped the leaves in Granny Apple Green. I used a Flirty Flamingo Stampin’ Write Marker to color the centers of the flowers.
I adhered the stamped panel to the Blueberry Bushel mat and tied on a length of Whisper White Polka Dot Tulle Ribbon before adhering everything to the card base.
That was easy, right? And you got two tips today–and it’s not even Protip Tuesday. That’s tomorrow, so come on back!
