Holy smoke! Is it really December? Only 21 days ’til Christmas.
Today we’re exploring the wonderful world of stamping with a stamp set sans coordinating framelits.
Be honest. As you study the pages of stunning projects in a Stampin’ Up! catalog, do you flip right past stamps that don’t have coordinating framelits or thinlets?
Shame, shame. I hope not, but I know many stampers do. It’s a pity because one of the most adorable sets in the holiday catalog falls into that category. So Santa is a set of 10 stamps with three silly Santa caricatures and the perfect punny sentiments to complete fun Christmas cards. It even includes a couple of accent stamps.
There are so many ways to steer your designs; you won’t even miss silhouette-cutting the images. No coordinating framelits are needed.
Today in Part 1, I’m showing a bright Christmas red card with a hint of tartan plaid to prop jolly Santa as he delivers toys on his fuel efficient motor scooter. I’m calling it the Silly Christmas Card with So Santa and Stampin’ Blends.
Santa has been stamped using a Memento ink pad and cropped using the Stitched Shapes Framelits. To color this and the other two Santa images, Stampin’ Blends are the best. Hands. Down. Even the beginning stamper can produce a piece of art.
