Stretch Your Stamps Day 12 Combining Stamps

Once again this card class has made me think of my stamps in a different way. I enjoyed taking my sentiment stamp and pairing it with this arrow stamp for the background. I really enjoyed the class and it sparked so many ideas for cards. I cannot wait to make more cards.


Stretch Your Stamps Day 10 Border Stamps

I do not have a lot of border stamps but I did try to use the few I had. I found that using them on a smaller piece instead of the whole card worked out better for me.


Stretch Your Stamps Day 9 Outline stamps

I have a fair number of outline stamps but I decided to pull out stamps I had not used before. I love these animal stamps so I just had to make a baby card with them. I also loved that I got to use water colors to color the animals, so much fun.



Stretch Your Stamps Day 8 Card Label Stamps

I have label stamps but had not used them in quite a while, so it was nice to use them.
Here is my card, its not my best effort but it has given me other ideas.

Stretch Your Stamps Day 7 card

I skipped Day 6 because I do not have a stamp and die cut combo I could use for the card so, I skipped to Day 7. Day 7 we were supposed to use floral stamps, I have TONS of flower stamps but I had never used them for a background on a card. Once again I am learning so much. This card I was especially proud of because its so simple clean. I usually go crazy on my cards but this time I liked that it was simple. I enjoyed using watercolors on the flower and make it it 3D by stamping it 2 times and layering it on the card. 


Stretch Your Stamps Day 5 card

This one is my favorite so far, we were using sentiment stamps.

Stretch Your Stamps Day 4 card

This was challenging and fun. I really loved the hexagons, never would have done that without the push from class.

Stretch Your Stamps Class Day 1 card

I have stamps that I do not use so I decided to take this class from Online Card Classes.

Day 1 was really tough because we used back ground stamps. I decided that my best approach was to try to use it for something other than a background. I cannot say this is my best work but at least I tried.
