A hearty congratulations to my friend and downline Linda on the birth of her twin grandsons! I knew just the stamp I wanted to use for this special card.
Wow! This stamp is so easy to use and creates such realistic images. It uses 3-step stamping but Stampin' Up! has made it easy for us by labeling the stamps with a 1 or a 2 or a 3. In addition, each stamp has an arrow tab so lining the stamp up with the previous image is a snap. Start with your lightest color first followed by progressively darker inks. This can be accomplished with different inks or by stamping off.
Ginger Snaps:
- Dapper Denim 4-1/4" x 11" cardbase scored at 5-1/2 & a banner below the sentiment.
- Moroccan DSP 3-1/4" x 4-1/2"
- Very Vanilla C.S. 3-3/4" x 4" mat & a sentiment banner
- Stamp the bear images twice in the following order:
- Baby Bear stamp 1 with Crumb Cake Ink
- Baby Bear stamp 2 with Soft Suede Ink
- Baby Bear stamp 3 with Early Espresson Ink
- Fussy cut the bears & pop them up with Stampin' Dimensional
- The Bow Ties are 2-step stamping
- Bow 1 with Soft Sky Ink
- Bow 2 with Marina Mist Ink
- Fussy cut the bow ties & adhere with Snail
- Place a Dapper Denim Enamel Shape in the middle of each bow.
- Wrap Very Vanilla Thick Baker's Twine around the bottom part of the card and tie in a bow.
These bears looks so real that I just want to squeeze them! And, what a fun way to welcome twin boys. Of course the inside of the card needed to to let Linda know how excited we are for her family.
