WEDNESDAY’S WOW #154 – GETTING A CRISP STAMPING

Wednesday’s WOW! #154 – How to get a crisp stamping with Photopolymer stamps.

Sometimes when you stamp with Photopolymer stamps you don’t get the crisp stamping result that you would like. Do you find that?

I have particularly recently BUT I have a couple of tips for you to be sure to get a better stamping.

Firstly when stamping give your Photopolymer stamps a clean with the Stampin’ Mist and Scrub. This will remove some of the residue from production. You could use an eraser too.

Then when you stamp be sure to have something underneath your card. The Piercing Mat or even a catalogue. It will give you a little “bounce” and your stamped image should be much more crisper.

Did you find that helpful?

Happy Stamping,

Jenny

STAMPIN’ UP! JOY TO YOU WITH COTTAGE WREATHS FOR CHRISTMAS!

This was one of the cards we made at last week’s Christmas Crafternoon event. It needed it to be kept fairly simple with so many people attending and many new to stamping too.

It uses the Joy To You Stamp Set and the Cottage Wreaths set. Along with the Joy of Christmas Designer Series Paper.

To streamline the process I diecut the white piece using the Nested Essentials Dies and diecut the red bow from the Country Wreaths Dies.

Everyone enjoyed the creating even those who had never done it before. So that is always exciting to see.

We are doing the Christmas Crafternoon again on October 15th so if you are local drop me a message and I can send you the details.

Happy Crafting,

STAMPIN’ UP! TRUCKING ALONG WITH A TRAILER.

Not just a truck (pickup/ute) but you can make a trailer as well. It makes a fun addition using the Trucking Along Bundle.

To do this – Stamp 2 trucks, punch them out. With one snip the back off and cut a little “tab” near the front end of the rear of the truck. If that makes sense. I will do a little video of it shortly and post it to Facebook and Instagram for you to see so be sure you follow along there.

You can build a scene with the other stamps in the set.

The sentiment from Sending Smiles is quite apt for this card I think. It is diecut with the co-ordinating die from the Sending Dies.

This is the fun Trucking Along Stamp set and the Punch. You can use this for many different occasions.

This was one of the cards we created in our class today. So fun!

If you are local we would love to see you there. We always welcome new crafters. My classes are in East Corrimal, Wollongong. NSW If you can’t make them I can send out the Class By Mail.

If you just have to have this Trucking Along Bundle don’t miss out. It’s part of the Online Exclusives and only for a limited time.
