BBFF | Karen Moss | Stamping

Hello, hello - Karen here with my offering for the stamping challenge.

Now, I am not a stamper and I have only recently taken to using stamps but still lack the confidence to stamp onto a layout.

So for this challenge I put on my 'Big Girl's Pants' and made myself rise to the challenge.  I did cheat a little in that I used a Tim Holtz stamping platform as I felt more confident with being able to reink my stamps if the image was patchy and know that it would stamp on exactly the same place.

My layout is about my daughter and her best friend who she used to call her Bestest Best Friend Forever and this seems to be the case as they are still friends 17 years after meeting and each going to separate universities and now living 330 miles apart.

To see how I made this page I have a YouTube video here which shows the process that went into making the page.

We would love to see your pages with stamping on.

Happy Thoughts | Amy Kattenbelt | Stamping

Hi, I'm here today to show you my layout for November, with the theme of stamping.

This month I decided to scraplift myself as I had had so many comments about my original layout and requests to make a process video to show how it was created.

Please do check out the You Tube video to see how the layout came together.

I used a stamp set from Crate Paper called Wild Heart which has lots of different leaves. This technique would work well with lots of different stamp sets though...a floral selection in bright colours would be perfect for summer photos! 

Once my stamping is finished I add a layer of paper behind my photo, a few carefully chosen stickers and ephemera pieces, some enamel dots and a date!

We are looking forward to seeing your layouts using Stamping over on our facebook group, so do come and join us if you aren't already a member!
