#simplestamping on Stamp & Camp with Mary Sep 19, 2021




Sunday on Stamp & Camp with Mary we did some #simplestamping.  I used 2 stamp sets the Artistically Inked and the Delicate Dahlias.  When using the Delicate Dahlias  I wanted to also show how you can make a difference in the look of a card when you two step stamp by using different colors for the line stamps.

With Artistically Inked I also wanted to show you can do a #simplestamping card right on Designer Series Paper giving it just a little more class.


As you can see the Delicate Dahlias looks totally different depending upon the  color of the outline stamp.  The fill colors are the same and even they look different.




Let's take a look at this weeks Stamp & Camp with Mary and may be you will be able to join us next Sunday on Facebook at 3:30 PM  ET

More CASEing on There's A Card Thursday



Where do you get inspiration for your cards.  Don always asks me did you think that up yourself?  I usually say no I got the idea from another card, Pinterest, another demo or from our catalogs.  

Well for this card I used the 20 -21 Annual Catalog for inspiration.

I love my Poppies and I just had to make this card.


This really is a fun card to make. So let's get to it.

Have you ever had one of those days, well this Stamp & Camp was one of those days.



Ever have one of those days when you could not do anything right. Well Stamp & Camp with Mary on Sunday was that day for me. Check out my video of that fateful Facebook Live. We did make a great simple card using the Wonderful Snowflakes.


The other as I call it the Disaster Card we used the Christmas Pinecone Dies.  I tried it before and it I had a tough time die cutting it so I thought I would use the one set I cut out without a problem as time was running short and I did not have time to cut more before the Live.  Well not just the coloring but then I could not get the Self Adhesive sheet off without problems and then I laid one in the reinker, OH well it was a mess and you can watch it all in the video below.

Here is the Disaster Card I finally finished.


Does not look anything like what I pictured it to be.  Enjoy a good laugh.




Hope you had a good laugh.
