Have you see the new Grab and Go at Stamp Anniething?? So much stuff in this one! Because I am geographically hampered, I just got the stamps to play with and had so much fun colouring them up! I made quite basic Xmas cards but finally remembered to write down some of my colour recipes, and am pleased to share them with you today!
I picked Mayor Jeffery, Christine and Taylor to colour up! Here they are after I had coloured them up, before decoration or assembly!
Here are some close up’s of my colouring, along with my recipes!
I didn’t just want to do my recipes, I thought it would be a shame not to make them up into 3 usable Christmas Cards, only a simple layout for each one and trying to use some other nice Stamp Anniething products I had in my stash!
So for Christine I used backing paper from the 6×6 Luck O’ The Irish Paper Pad, with strips from the 6×6 Awakening Glitter Pad to make it sparkly Xmas backing paper! Sentiments are from various stamps in the set. I also added some green cardstock from the stash, as well as the green card blank. For a bit of embellishment I pierced a hole in my sentiment strip and added two little cane charms (From Paperchase, it was on offer not full price!).
Next card I used a paper from the 6×6 Love is in the Air Paper Pad with some green strips of card and some strips of glitter paper. As with Christine above I added some charms to my Mayor Card, and some cute Holly Bling from the stash. Sentiments are all from the stamp sets in the box.
Finally for my Taylor card, I layered up cardstock from the 6×6 Love is in the Air Pad, and the 6×6 Luck O’The Irish Pad onto a red card blank from the stash. I used some more glitter cardstock from the 6×6 Awakening Glitter Pad to bling up my sash and banner. I couldn’t resist adding a spot of holly bling from the stash and some cute red and white pompoms too.
Have soooo many ideas for using the other stamps in the box! Do check it out cos there are some amazing sprinkles, ribbons and stencils in there too!
