Hi there! Spellbinders has a large variety of monthly club kits to which you can subscribe featuring fun stamps and dies. Their monthly stamp club is a real bargain: $10 for a full size stamp set when you subscribe! The sweet little bunnies in this March Stamp of the Month remind me of springtime toile, so I created a trio of cards using these beautiful stamps.
Sometimes, using one ink color can be just as impactful as a variety of ink colors, and it can allow the detail in the stamps to really shine! Using my trusty Misti stamping tool, I was able to create three stamped panels using three different shades of ink- Ballet Slipper, Grapefruit, and Sea Glass- super springy colors, in my opinion!
After I’d stamped each panel with the bunny and wreath of flowers using colored ink, I used a black pigment ink to add a crisp black sentiment from the March Stamp of the Month on each panel. I then trimmed them down from A2 size and added a black mat that was very slightly larger to create a thin black frame around the edge.
For the bases, I chose coordinating shades of colored cardstock and trimmed them down to A2 size. I then used the same ink shades to stamp a custom tone-on-tone pattern just around the edge of each colored cardstock panel using some of the individual floral stamps from the March Stamp of the Month stamp set.
Once I had stamped all of the pieces of colored cardstock, I mounted the black framed panels on each of them using foam adhesive. Such clean and springy projects! I love when you can create lovely projects easily and quickly because of beautifully designed stamps.
Well, that’s all for my projects today! I hope you’ll check out all of the Spellbinders Monthly Club Kits… there are so many fun options to choose from, and the variety of styles and products represented is a wonderful value!
