Putting It All Together!


Card making is an adventure!

 The new stamp sets arrive, and our first cards will probably incorporate most of the elements of that set, which has been designed by Stampin' Up! to go together.
What happens, when you have made as many cards as you want to, with that particular set?

You mix it up!

The card above has the chevron from Oh Hello, a medallion from Daydream Medallions, a sentiment stamp from Vintage Verses, a butterfly from Papillon Potpourri...you get the idea....


Here is another example. The banner is from Hearts a Flutter, tucked under a Lattice die cut. Then the sentiment stamp, is PART of the Just Thinking stamp, but instead of being cut out with a Window Frames framelit, the central sentiment has been punched out with the 2.5 inch circle punch, which leaves just enough of the border to frame the sentiment



The next card has some of the same elements, with the Just Thinking card cut out with the Window Frames framelit, but then the sentiment on that stamp is overlaid with the sentiment from Delightful Dozen, punched out with the 2.5 inch circle punch.

The possibilities and variations for mixing up elements from our stamp sets are exciting! I do like to get good value from my purchases, don't you?
