If you’re new to Stamp of Approval – click here to check out everything you need to know about this exclusive collection of stamps, dies and other goodies. All these products were designed specifically for this collection; they are brand new, and while they will be made available at Catherine's store in the future, they won't be available there for many months.
My first card features a sentiment from Happy Together stamp set and a creative way to use the Adore Die.
I die cut the Adore die twice using white card stock. I trimmed off the top portion of the die on both pieces. I then rotated one of the die cut pieces and placed it over the other piece. This creates a fun plaid pattern. So cool, right?!!! I layered this onto a piece of black card stock to help it stand out.
I then stamped the sentiment once using Limoncello & Samba ink and then again using Midnight ink. I used the coordinating die to cut them both out and then on the Midnight one I fussy cut the love out and glued it over top the colored sentiment. Easy peasy!!!
My next card features the adorable birds from the Happy Together stamp set & the Love Note Background stamp.
I started my card by stamping the Love Note Background stamp onto my card base. I only inked up one side of the stamp because I new I was going to be covering most of it.
I then stamped the branches, leaves, buds & sentiment onto my card piece. I stamped and die cut the birds and mounted them onto the card front using dimensional adhesive.
I attached a small strip of black card stock to the stamped panel and adhered it to my card base.
