Perfectly Plaid - Stamp Review Crew

November 29, 2020

Welcome to the Perfectly Plaid Edition of Stamp Review Crew. This set is a trusted favorite and I was glad to see it stick around in the Stampin’ Up! catalog for another year.

The card I create today is simple! The tree punch shape is the star of the show. The ‘love and joy’ sentiment are taken from the larger greeting in this set ‘May this special season be wrapped in love and joy’. It’s easy to use parts of stamp greetings, simply ink up the portion of the stamp you want to use. You can do this with markers or by taping off the words you don’t want to use when inking. Just remember to remove the inked tape before you stamp.

December 9, 2019

Hello! Welcome to another Global Design Project challenge. Our theme this week is O’ Christmas Tree. There are loads of stamp sets with tree images that you could turn into a Christmas tee so I know you can play along with us!

I used the Perfectly Plaid stamp set and Wrapped in Plaid Designer Series Paper to make this card. Do you go out and chop down a live Christmas tree?

Perfectly Plaid - Stamp Review Crew

November 17, 2019

Welcome to the Perfectly Plaid Edition of Stamp Review Crew.

Perfectly Plaid is a super fun stamp set that has a coordinating punch. I did not use the punch on wither of these projects.

For these two projects I opted to stamp with the more realistic looking tree image in the set. I found that you can make a tree any size you want with this image. How did I do this? Super easy. I started with watercolor paper and dampened it a bit. Then I stamped the image repeatedly until I achieved the size I wanted. That’s it! You can see in this first card two tree sizes. The smaller tree is the actual size of the stamp.

I created a super large tree on this second card. Isn’t it fantastic? The trees have been stamped using Shaded Spruce ink.

Ready for more inspiration using this stamp set? Next up is the talented Lou! Be sure to go through the hop to see what ALL my talented friends have created using this set. Thanks in advance for taking the time to comment. I love to hear from you.
