Do you like to make each card unique?
Maureen here, and I'm going to give you a great tip on how to get those cards stamped without all of the stress (and mess!).
Stamps: Winter Woodland, // Inks: Cranberry Crush // Dies: Winter Woodland Dies, Holiday Apertures Cardstock: Kraft
Start with a card you love - for me it's the one above. I love the colors and design, so why not use this card as inspiration and use the same supplies to make another card?
Stamps: Winter Woodland, // Inks: Cranberry Crush , White Pigment Ink // Dies: Winter Woodland Dies, Timeless Tags 2 Die Cardstock: Kraft
Here I used the same design ideas as the first card - repeatedly stamping the background, the placement of the deer and the pops of red - but I've come up with a card that is completely different. While you're at it, just keep going!
Stamps: Winter Woodland, // Inks: Cranberry Crush , White Pigment Ink // Dies: Winter Woodland Dies, Landscape Borders Die // Cardstock: Kraft
This time I've changed the orientation of my card, but kept those same design principles intact and designed another unique card from the same set of supplies!
The next time you sit down to create and come up with something you love, leave all of your supplies out and just keep creating! See how many different looks you can get using the same supplies!
Beautiful cards! Awesome tips! I don't enjoy making the same exact design over and over again either, but creating variations wit the same supplies is a great way to keep them fresh and fun to make! Great post Maureen :)
ReplyDeleteAwesome tips, Mo! LOVE all of these!!!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Kara! Gonna try this out!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the cards and tips - makes a lot of sense to keep creating with the similar supplies - never looked at mass producing that way! Julie

ReplyDeleteGreat tip Maureen! I get tired of making the same card over and over, so this hits me in just the right spot!

ReplyDeleteIt really helps me to see all these variations, thanks so much!
ReplyDeleteThis is so beautifully done! Love it!
ReplyDeleteThese cards sold me in a minute. I just received my Winter Woodland sets and can't wait to get started. Beautiful work!!
ReplyDeleteI like that you varied the design for both cards. Great results with the same stamp sets.
ReplyDeleteI love these. The designs, the kraft cardstock with white and black and a touch of red, the images--everything is just right. TFS.
ReplyDeleteThank you Maureen - many ideas here. I have this stamp set so your help is much appreciated. Julie
