I am so glad I got inspired yesterday!! It has pushed me to use some of my supplies!! This is the video I watched... I just recently subbed toMMacKent and she talked about stamping out a few of her stamps in different colors. She plans on using them as die-cuts.... LIGHT BULB!!
I thought to myself "JES, you don't use nearly enough of your stamps!!" So I grab a piece of semi smooth card stock from Hobby Lobby and got to stamping. I decided that I would put the stamps out that look sort of like banners and not too layout specific. I have to say I was really really happy with the ones I pulled. Here is a quick video of the process!
My middle son just had to help... but wasn't happy with the results and got mad :( "These are doubled!" You can guess what happened! Anyway to the right are the ones that turned out pretty good!! I still can't get over that "Cutie Pie" stamp... soo cute!!
I can't wait to stamp out more of my stash... so I have them handy! I am not fussy cutting them until I am going to use them. Some times I want a border of white around the die-cuts and sometime I like it flush. I figured I would make that choice during the layout!
