Timeless Tidings - Show me your creations and your name will be entered into a prize drawing
Today I'm sharing two cards I made using the Timeless Tidings stamp set. When I purchased this set, it expected to use it with the amazing Timeless Tidings Project Kit, but I really like the sentiments and small images that are in the set. It's a very versatile set for the Holiday Season.
First a card that I CASE'd (Copy and Share Everything) from Pinterest. I'm really sorry, but I can't remember who's card this is. If it's yours, let me know and I'm happy to give you credit.
My second card is made using the Stamparatus and a template - with this template you can create a wreath from any small image. I used the instructions from Sandy Hancock to create my template (Thank you for the clear and easy instructions!)
- Cut one piece of 7"x 7" white card stock (c/s) and draw a line down the centre in both directions.
- Cut one piece of 7"x 7" acetate and lay it on top of the white cardstock.
- Cut one piece of 3 1/2" x 3 1/2" and draw a line down the center in both directions.
- Lay the 3 1/2" square on top of the 7" square like you see in the picture. Use a permanent black marker to draw a line around the 3 1/2" square onto the acetate.
- The turn the 3 1/2" square of paper diagonally, making sure that each tip lines up on one of the black lines.
- Again, take the permanent black marker and draw a line around the square.
- Take away the 3 1/2" white square with the lines on it.
- Insert the large white square with the lines and the acetate with the squares into the Stamparaus.
- Place a clean 3 1/2" white square into the centre of the square and you are ready to stamp!
- Place the stamp where you want it to go.
- Close the Stamparatus plate down over it. The stamp will stick to the stamparatus and you are ready ink and stamp!
- Ink the stamp as it is fastened to the Stamparatus plate and then stamp it onto the card stock.
- After stamping the first image, rotate the 3 1/2" white card stock so that now the points are lined up diagonally.
- You'll stamp and turn the card stock 8 times until you have gone all the way around the circle.
- Check out the first picture again to see the finished product!
For this card, I used the poinsettia image to create my wreath. I stamped it 8 times around the circle using Tuxedo Memento Black Ink. Then I coloured using the Dark Cherry Cobbler Stampin' Blends. I stamped the Merry Christmas sentiment in the middle of the wreath. I thought that I should have stamped in VersaMark and embossed in Gold after I finished the card - it would have really popped the sentiment. Maybe you can try that at home and share your creations!
To finish the card I mounted on Crumb Cake and Cherry Cobbler card stock and popped up on a piece of All is Bright Designer Series Paper and then finally on a Call Me Clover card base. A piece of Striped Burlap Trim and some Gold Pearls finished off the card!
Here's my finished product!
This is a great way to use your Stamparatus! You can create amazing wreaths out of any small image! I'm so excited to see your cards Leave a comment with a picture of your creation (doesn't have to be Christmas) and I'll draw for a prize on October 1st!
Happy Stamping!Melva
