Hello Stampers,
So many are still shoveling snow and more snow so I decided to bring the beach to YOU. Well in today video I share tips on how to align the stamp set Beach Happy. Also I share how to sponge the background with sponge and or the Foam Brayer. Talking about the foam brayer, well I had no desire of this tool because I was comparing it the rubber brayer. Well now I have a different view for this foam brayer. Oh How I love it for a soft background. Trust me you will be amaze when you see how simple it is to have a soft background.
Tips in today video
The video today it is jam with tips. Here a few to be on the lookout for.
How to:
- align the stamp set on the Stamparatus
- bend the palm try in different direction
- use the ink spots
- use the foam brayer for a soft background
So many great tips in this 12 minutes video. You will be happy you took the time to watch.
The video can be found below or on my You Tube Channel.
Background with Foam Brayer
Here you can see the little speckle on the bottom, It look just like sand. No extra touch but the foam brayer for this look.
Background with Sponge
This card the background is with the sponge. You can see it is more deep in colors. I will be honest this take lots more time then the brayer. Still look great just the time is a big factor.
I was making about 160 of these cards for thank YOU and I was was running out of time so I decided to try the foam brayer. BOOM I save so many hours I was able to do some extra cleaning in my craft room.
The funny part I was in a rush to finish them for this month Thank YOU card and now I decided to make a different Thank YOU cards for this month with some of the limited edition products 🙂
Stamping in 3 colors
The way that I set up my Stamparatus is is way cool. I align my stamps on 3 plats. So the stamping is quick, one side is all the element in Melon Mambo, one side Garden Green and one Side in Soft Sued. All show in the video.
If you used the Stampin’ Sports for small stamp with the Stamparatus it is much easier and less messy. I listed the empty Stampin’ Sports in the supplies list with the refills. Note, YOU can use the big ink pad. I personally love the spots with the Stamparatus so I don’t get ink all over the plates.
Measurement
Wow this is simple. It a one piece NO layer card. So the THICK whisper white 8½ x 5½ score at 4¼. When using the thick card stock it is a much better result if you take the time to score. If you choose not to score, when folding in half it tend to crinkle at the top.
