Hey everyone and welcome back to another post!
I wanted to share with you a technique today on how you can create a really fun effect just by the way you stamp on piece of card.
It add a sort of 3D effect to your card and its so quick and easy to do! You could play around with different positions of each layer and use different shapes! I have made so many of these cards and always used a two colour scheme and I love it. You could use more than two colours if you wanted as well!
If you want to find out how you can do this technique then just keep reading.
Steps:
1) For the card base cut a piece of card 5 1/2" x 9" and score at 4 1/2" to create a top folding landscape card
2) Cut two more pieces of card, the same colour as your card base, one will be 4" x 3" and the other will be 2 3/4" x 1 3/4". You will also need three piece of white (or a lighter colour) cardstock. One 5 1/4" x 4 1/4", another 3 3/4" x 2 3/4" and the final piece 2 1/2" x 1 1/2"
3) Layer all your piece of card white. Start by putting your middle size on the biggest and the centre and finally your smallest in the centre of the middle. Use a glue dot for each piece as you will be taking these apart after
4) Stamp your images all over your card. You could stamp a small image multiple times as I did or you could do one large
5) Take apart your three piece and adhere the largest to the front of your card base
6) Adhere the middle piece of white card to your largest piece of card the same colour as your base
7) Stick the piece from the last step onto the front of your card
8) Finally repeat with your remaining two piece of card
9) Finally you can add your sentiment to the front and attach another white piece of card to the inside to write your message on!
Its so simple and quick to do and it gives such a unique effect to your card!
