Today I am sharing a technique with you on how to create your own background paper using a stamp from the Artistically Inked Bundle. This technique can be adapted to a variety of stamps, but I think the Artistically Ink set creates a wonderful marbleized background effect.
I stamped directly on my Basic White cardstock, but you could also use a high quality printer paper to create your own Designers Series paper.
The Delicate Dahlias set is a Sale-a-bration product and I am happy to say can be yours with a $100 order. But hurry, this offer ends on September 30, 2021. Our host code is HXMHZWQX-Happy Stamping!
Thanks for stopping by! Until next time, be blessed, Renae
The number one thing on my list when I first got the Sale-a-Bration brochure was the adorable Penguin Playmates Designer Series Paper pack and yes, I also have the Penguin Place bundle from the July – December 2021 mini catalog, page 33. I just can’t help myself, I love all things Christmas and most especially cute little Christmas playmates.
This paper is so much fun to cut up and create stinkin’ cute cards! I posted a video on Monday as part of my Make it Monday videos tutorials on how to use the Stitched Rectangles and this adorable paper. Click hereif you missed that video. Check out my other videos by using the categories search located in the side bar of each post.
I started with a Soft Seafoam card base and added a layer of trees from the Penguin Playmates Designer Series paper pack. I tore a 3 x 4 panel of Basic White Cardstock in half and layered it on the DSP to resemble snow drifts. I then fussy cut some of the playmates with my Paper Snips and added them to the snow banks. Both greetings are from Evergreen Elegance.
Here is a look at the inside of my card! The white panel measures 4 x 5¼.

I guess you could say watching the Summer Olympics inspired this card. While these are not Olympic colors, I used four of the five new in-colors, Fresh Freesia, Pale Papaya, Polished Pink and Soft Succulent. I began with a Basic White card and added a layer of Polished Pink, followed by a 3 3/4 x 5 layer of white where I stamped the circles from the Textures and Frame set.

Then hardest part of this card will be cleaning your circle stamp in between colors. LOL The greeting is stamped in Soft Succulent and punched out with the Tailored Tag punch. TIP: The Shammy 147042 $8) cleans these stamps beautifully. Be sure you begin with a clean shammy. I hope you are crating and enjoying the Olympic games!
