Nuts About Squirrels

Comments: 0

Okay, I’ve just got to say how adorable this squirrel from the Nuts About Squirrels stamp set is!  Don’t you think?! It’s a Two-Step stamp set that features 13 photopolymer stamps including 2 squirrels, and their accessories as well as some great sentiments.  I’ve paired the stamp set with the Timber Embossing Folder and the Beauty of the Earth Designer Series Paper for a great fall birthday card.

Delicate Dahlias Sympathy Card

,
Comments: 0

Can I just say how much I LOVE the Delicate Dahlias stamp set from the Sale-a-bration Catalog?!  Delicate Dahlias is a Two-Step  stamp set which is so easy to use because it is a photopolymer stamp set, which means you can see through the clear stamp to line things up.  The stamp set is also a “Dist-INK-tive” style stamp which means the image has depth and shading to make it more realistic.  Notice all the shading on the flower?  That’s done simply by stamping it once!

The Delicate Dahlias stamp set is one of the FREE Sale-a-bration items you can choose with a qualifying purchase.  Some Sale-a-bration items are earned with a $50 purchase while others, like Delicate Dahlias is yours with a $100 purchase.

I created more depth to the image by popping up a second layer of flower on top of the first.
