This is a card that I made by making my own custom stamp pad. This is much easier than coloring the stamp with markers every time you want to stamp it. To do this you stamp your image on felt or a baby wipe in StazOn then drop ink from reinkers into the appropriate places for the color palette that you want. You may have to spritz with water in order for the ink drops to run together. Be sure to keep your newly made ink pad going the same direction as the stamp is or your colors will not be in the appropriate place. Now you are ready to stamp multiple images all without having to recolor your stamp every time.

I hope you try and like this technique. Then be sure the next time that you have to make multiples of the same colored card that you remember to use this technique.

New Stitched Stocking Stamp Set

Ok, I know it has been almost two years since I have posted, I am going to try to post on a regular basis. Hopefully I will be able to keep it up.

I have been playing with some new Stampin' Up! toys that were delivered by Mr. Brown earlier this week. I used the new Stitched Stocking stamp set and the matching Stocking Builder Punch, also the new Cherry Cobbler quilted ribbon and Dazzling Details. I also used Designer Frames and Houndstooth Textured Impressions Embossing Folders. Both of these folders are in the new Idea Book and Catalog. I really like the Houndstooth folder, but then I really like to have embossed backgrounds for my projects.
