Create Cards with Fun Stamping Techniques!



Welcome!  Ice cream is good any time of the year--right!?!  So, as we continue our roller coaster weather season, I created this bright and cheerful card.  Our color palette creates a happy reminder that spring and summer are just around the corner. 

The sentiments remind the recipient to take and enjoy life one step (scoop) at a time.  😊  This stamp set would also be fantastic on your scrapbook pages!  



The stamps I used are included in the One Scoop at a Time Cardmaking Workshop Your Way Kit.  This a super fun theme of ice cream and pineapple!  Yum!  Oh, yes, it brings thoughts of warm, carefree days!!!  😊

When I stamped my ice cream, I used both the 'Second Generation' and the 'Rock n Roll' techniques.  Both are easy peasy!  

In a nutshell, you'll stamp the Raspberry ink on a piece of scrap paper, then again on your cardstock, without re-inking.  Hence, the technique term, second generation.  😉



After you have your second generation scoop, re-ink your stamp by gently rolling the bottom and/or side, and stamp over the top of your second generation scoop.  

Along with the Raspberry ink, I also used Almond for the cone and Pewter for Enjoy Life and banner outline.  


With the clear polymer stamp on your clear My Acrylix block, there is no problem in realigning your images.  Woo Hoo!  These techniques add a nice highlighted effect to your artwork. 

I'll also be demonstrating these techniques in my Virtual Classroom.  You can access this with your purchase of this kit at PapercraftingWithGayle.ctmh.com. I hope to see you soon!💝


The pinstripe and polka dot pattern papers are from the Something Fierce Creative Collection.  To show you some of the versatility in this collection, I've shown you previously my Blessed layout and layout with my bison pics.  Even my Impossible Card has a bit of Something Fierce!  😉
