What a productive day I had yesterday! I invented something new!
Or so I thought. Later on, I found someone on Pinterest who made the same “discovery”. I guess Great Minds think alike!
First, My Discovery
Here are 2 of the stamps in the Eastern Beauty photopolymer stamp set. Simple. Clean. My favorite kind of design… other than a flower, that is!
Then, I stamped each image again. But the second time, I rotated the stamp a bit. Since they are photopolymer, I could sort of see through them to place them accurately on the cardstock. Here is what I stamped.
Aren’t these designs cool?
Leave me a comment and let me know what you think.
Card Design with the Technique I Discovered
So, I started with my cool design. I stamped it on Whisper White cardstock. Cropped it with a die from the Layering Circles Framelits. Then I matted it on a circle cropped with a Stitched Shapes Framelit.
The next challenge was to create a card to go under this fabulous element. Do you ever do that? I think it’s a backwards way to design. True confession time. I do that sometimes. Sigh.
The card is done in Bermuda Bay, Soft Sky, and Whisper White. Other than my main image, the stamped images are from Timeless Textures. I created a collage on the card. The Thick Bakers Twine “grounds” the central circle, so that it doesn’t float in the air.
Here are the Supplies I Used
The stamp set is part of the Eastern Palace bundles, here until May 31. The items making up the bundles will be in the new catalog. But not the bundles. Hmmm. Decision. Time
But, I’m serious. Tell me what you think about this discovery. Please leave a comment. I love to hear from you!
Then , fell free to share your discoveries!!
Proud to have discovered something new!!!!
