Alphabet Press


Well here is a fun new technique I tried this weekend.  I used the Stampin' Up! embossing folder Alphabet Press to make this card.
You can see below how I made this......
Products Used:
Cardstock- Coastal Cabana, Sahara Sand, Whisper White, So Saffron
Accessories- Alphabet Press embossing folder, Chalk Talk framelit
Pool Party Baker's Twine
Stamp Set- Bring On the Cake!  #128490



I used a little baker's twine and tied it around the finger as a reminder to wish big!


I started with the Alphabet press embossing folder and a black stampin spot.  I tried to use the classic size stamp pad but found better results with the spot.  Rub the ink and tap it all over the side of the folder that is NOT raised.  I know this seems incorrect but you will see it is the right side.   Put your paper between the folder and run through the Big Shot machine.


 you can see I just rubbed and tapped the ink onto the folder....



This is how it will look when it comes out of the folder
Below I tried it on some other colors of paper.  Black on coastal cabana, Basic Gray on very vanilla, coastal cabana on whisper white.  They all look great!  Now see what you can come up with!

More Word Bubbles




Sharing some more word bubbles today.  I used the word bubble framelits on this card as a "mask"  Take and punch out the word bubbles of your choice and use just a touch of mono adhesive to the back so that the bubbles don't move.   I used the Gorgeous Grunge stamp set to create all the paint splatter.  Stamp all over the white cardstock, even over top of the word bubbles.   Once all stamped remove the word bubbles.



Here's what I started with.....


You can see that I stamped EVERYWHERE! basically made a mess!!


Before removing the bubbles take your black stampin write marker and trace around each of them.
Now stamp the inside of the bubbles,  I used the Bring on the cake stamp set.

Take a look below for the instructions......


And here's how it goes!
Start with a piece of white cardstock- 3 3/4" x 5", take a pencil and draw a bubble towards the middle of the card as shown. 

Take your washi tape,  I have used Stampin Up! Retro fresh.....

Using your Stampin Up! cutting blade, cut around the traced bubble you created and peel away.....


It will look like this...... (below)
