When we demonstrators go to Stampin’ Up! events there is always some Stamping involved. Woo Hoo! The best part is that we always get to stamp with new products!
This is one of the Make-n-Take projects we got to make. It is made with the lovely new Needle & Thread Stamp set and the Needlepoint Elements Framelits.
It’s one of Stampin’ Up!’s DisINKtive stamp sets. This means that images are very real looking. In this stamp set it actually looks like you made the flowers with your needle & thread! It’s really amazing. The artist actually took a photo of the image and made it into a stamp. Amazing.
It’s Tip of the Day Thursday so here’s your tip on working with DistINKtive stamps: You don’t want too much ink on your stamp so that the life-like image really pops. Use your bone folder to “scrape” off a little ink on the top of your ink pad before inking up the stamp. You could also just pick up some of the ink from your ink pad with a Sponge Dauber and dab it on the stamp before stamping the image on your paper. It really works!
Did you notice the big solid looking die on the framelit sheet? It creates this lovely background image with all the poked holes. (OK…I know there is a name for this but I can’t think of it this morning….if you know what word I’m looking for, please let me know!) I just love it! I can’t wait to play some more with this bundle.
You don’t get a very good view of the Needlepoint Nook Designer Series Paper but it is amazing too! Be sure to put this bundle and the coordinating products on your wish list for January!
Have a great day! Take care and Happy Stamping!
