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!
Wow gorgeous card
Beautiful card, May. Great tips…especially using a plastic plate. I’m always losing my stamps! Happy New Year. Thanks for sharing your talent.
This is such a lovely card !
This is so sweet and a fun technique, May!
Enjoyed your video so much, May! Your stamped heart is stunning! LOVE it!
What a lovely card! This is a cool technique. Thanks for sharing :)
My hand is not steady enough to draw heart, I used a valentine box as I have saved all sizes, just 2 mos till Valentine’s Day!
Beautiful card!! Love the combinatorial of the soft and bold colours. This is such an easy way to use your supplies to get a different look. I love techniques that stretch my my supplies!!
What a fun stamping idea! I can see this done with many different shapes. I can’t wait to try this!
What a great and beautiful idea. You have a lot of patience!
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)
This is just super beautiful!! Love it!
LOVE your card!!!
What a clever idea May. It makes me smile.
That is just gorgeous. You are so creative. What an amazing way to use small stamps!
Adorable! Love it :)
I didn’t even have to see your name to know this was your beautiful work May! Love your style!
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!
Great, fun card!
