Simple Stamping with Bermuda Bay

Hello!

And a special hello to anyone new to papercraft and Stamping.

This post demonstrates that all you need is one ink pad, one stamp set, white card and adhesive.

I usually make my card bases, but you can purchase ready made ones if you prefer.

I chose to work with Bermuda Bay ink to complement the main dragonfly image.

Stamping the image just below centre and at an angle gives the illusion of movent.

The dots were added around the edge to frame the card front.

I have snuck in some dimension by stamping the sentiment on to a strip of card and adhering it on to the card.

I hope you enjoyed this project. The supplies used are listed below.

Tropical Christmas #FMS366

Hi Everyone,

Here’s my entry for the Freshly Made Sketches challenge set by Cecile.

The design team projects can be seen here

And here is my design…..

I have broken out my Tropical Chic stamp set again and added some festive flair with the colour scheme.

Real Red ink was used to add the stripes to the background.

The leaves were stamped with Call Me Clover ink and die cut. Each was curled slightly and secured with a single dimensional.

The sentiment was taken from the Timeless Tidings stamp set. I thought this looked cute lying across the card at angle, this way it does not obscure the background design.

I hope you enjoyed this project. The supplies used are listed below.
