Stamp with Water

By on January 17, 2018

Stamp using water! It’s backward day! We are stamping water into the inked page instead of inking up the stamps. It is fun and easy and gives you a really beautiful effect. I discovered this by accident and I have been experiencing with it ever since. All you really need is an ink pad (or re-inkers) and water. Please feel free to leave any questions or comments about this fun new technique below.

Tape Masking techniques

By on January 15, 2018

When masking with tape on cardstock you are going to find it will tear the paper and cause problems for you. Most of us use washi tape which doesn’t do a great job. I have the answer for you! Use scotch tape and double sided tape with this simple trick to make your life sooo much easier!

~~~ Supplies~~~

Ink Pads (Early Espresso) Stampin Up
Ink Refills (Bermuda Bay, Elegant Eggplant, Cherry Cobler, Crushed Curry) Stampin Up
Scotch Tape (no paper or tissue tape)
Double-sided tape
(with a removable backing is best)
Thinlet Die (no longer available for purchase) Stampin Up
Wood Textures Designer Series Paper Stack Stampin Up
