Stamping Society - Cactus Cuties

March 1, 2022

Hello, hello! Welcome to 2022 edition of the Stamping Society Monthy tutorial.

What is Stamping Society? We are group of international stampers who showcase an idea monthly through a blog hop and then offer the exclusive written instructions for that idea through an easy to navigate tutorial. The tutorial showcases all 6 ideas along with measurements, photos and a video. Details on how to get the written tutorial at the end of this post.

This month we are sharing ideas using the Lady Bug punch bundle from the January to June mini catalog. You’ll notice I’m sharing cactus … LOL, I didn’t get the Ladybug bundle so the team agreed I could share a different punch bundle. There are a few really good ones in the catalog: Ladybug, Cactus, Hedgehogs. and Sail Boats come to mind. I’m sure there is one you will like.

I am featuring the ‘Cactus Cuties’ punch bundle. See this card come to life in my free video tutorial. A full list of supplies can be found at the end of this post.

Water & ink. I used water and classic ink to create this soft pastel card. Paper: watercolor paper. I used a variety of flower punches from my collection to create the multi-layered flowers. This card has so much dimension and is meant for hand delivery! 🤣 Use your stash! #stampinup #useyourstash #cardmaker #cardmakingreel

When I think of pastel I think watercolor. For this month our 'Use Your Stash' theme is PRETTY PASTEL. I pulled out the 'Good Greetings' stamp set and heat set the large greeting with white emboss powder. This greeting is so pretty. Then, I water painted a peachy color over the top for a soft & airy look. For the flowers I painted a few pink and peach multi-color washes and then punch out using various flower punches. The flower centers are irridescent rhinestones. Stampin' Up! products you can still purchase: Basic White cardstock, Fluid 100 watercolor Ink colors: Peach Pie, Pretty in Pink and Cloud Cover I can't wait to see what my friends pulled out from their stashes for this challenge. UYS is a monthly instagram hop where my friends and I get crafty and use what we have on hand to create a project around a certain theme. Use those supplies!

Cute little chicks lined up in a row … I was eyeballing it to try my hand at stamp alignment with this new Stampin’ Positioner tool. My free form is not perfect, but it doesn’t matter in the end when you mount your card crooked. 🐥🐥🐥🐥🐥 🤣 Stamp set is called Easter Basket and it’s on the last chance list.

Hey Chick! I used the sketch from #gdp542 as a starting point for creating this simple card. The cute chick does all the work, like usual! Play along with @global_design_project and create a project from our challenge sketch.  The little chick image
