Split Stamping Technique

  

Technique Time.  This technique gives an interesting touch to letters or images simply using a post it note and a stamping positioner (stamparatus).  The Stampin' Up! Stamparatus is no longer available for purchase, however, many have them (and don't use it that often), so here's a chance to blow off the dust and give it a try.

Card measurements in inches:
Soft sea foam -- 5-1/2 x 8-1/2, 2-3/4 x 3-1/2
Hello Irresistible Designer Series Paper -- 3/4 x 5-1/2, 1-1/2 x 5-1/2
Basic white -- 1-3/4 x 5-1/2

3-D Lighted Lantern

 

Technique Time.  This fun little lantern is a fun addition to any table setting that is going for a rustic or camping theme.  Super easy!  I did CASE this from someone on Pinterest, but forgot to save the name (sorry).

The little 3x3 note card was the thank you note for this month, and it paired well with the lantern.  The stamp set is from Campology which is on the retirement list.

The little box that holds the tea light is 2-1/2 x 2-1/2", scored at 1/2" around all four sides.

Peekaboo Circle Card Front


 

Technique Time!  This peekaboo circle front card just makes me smile.  The circle can be made by using any circle dies or a 2-1/4" punch.

Here is the instructional video.  In the video, I mentioned I would put captions when I sped up the video, but unfortunately I couldn't figure it out; however, it's pretty self explanatory.  The yellow pieces are post it notes that are die cut from the Rainy Days Bundle -- the bunny, (2) flowers, and (3) clouds.
