Video: Valentine's Day Card with Shaped Stamping
Today I incorporated the shaped stamping technique into my Valentine's Day card. I started by drawing a heart shape on a piece of white cardstock with a pencil as a guide.
Then I stamped various images from following stamp sets: Cherubs, Love Notes, Love, and Peace.
FYI, I used following inks for my stamping: Butter Bar, Lime Green, Fresh Peach, Tide Pool, Wet Cement. I added tiny dots using a tip of alcohol markers between my images to fill in the gaps.
Next, I heat embossed my sentiment from the Love Stamp & Cut with white embossing powder on a piece of red cardstock. Then I mounted the sentiment banner on the card front using 3M foam tame.
I finished off my card by attaching some diamond gemstones on both sides of my sentiment banner.
I made a video tutorial to show you how to make a card from start to finish. You can watch it above or in HD on YouTube.

Beautiful card! Thank you for the tip about putting the stamps you are going to use in a small container. So useful when using small and a number of stamps in a design!

May, I don’t think I have seen this technique used before where a shape outline has been filled inside and up to the edge with stamped images. It is something I will try. Thank you for sharing this video tutorial. :O)

I love this idea and I can think of a bunch of uses for this technique. I have some really small Christmas images (I think for use on tags) and I’m going to do this as a Christmas ornament. Thanks for the inspiration!
