So excited to bring the Words of Cheer Bundle to you for this entire week. I blog every day and I have so much fun doing it! Blessed to love what I do, bringing you great projects every day. Sunday is the day that I start with a new stamp set or bundle. I call Sunday’s Simple Stamping Sunday.
Not being a simple stamper, I like lots of layers, bling, ink colors, die cuts, and ribbons. You get the idea! I have been stamping for over 20 years, and I sometimes forget what it was like when I first began. And because it is Simple Stamping Sunday, that means I am posting a simple stamping project using only stamps, ink, and paper. Basic projects that anyone can do. You won’t have to own half the Stampin’ Up! catalog to make them! LOL! Sometimes it is nice to go back to how you began.
Beginner Stamping Words of Cheer Card
This card is a Simple Stamped card. Let’s call it a Beginner Card. It uses only stamps, ink, and paper. I used the Words of Cheer Bundle, Soft Seafoam Cardstock for the base, and accented with Basic White and Polished Pink Cardstock. The inks I used were Soft Seafoam Classic Ink and Polished Pink Classic Ink. This stamp set is just beautiful. I just love the font of the sentiments. Check out the close-ups.
If you choose to buy this Words of Cheer bundle in the new mini catalog, you will love it. This week I will show you so many ideas for it. I hope you will see how truly versatile it is because it would make a great addition to your collection or a great first stamp set. This entire week, I will be sharing ideas daily. By Saturday, there will be quite a few projects for my efforts. Come back to my blog daily to see them all.
Casual Stamping Words of Cheer Card
That first card was a Simple Stamping card, and this one is simple too just uses a few extra products. This second card represents one created by a Casual Stamper, someone who has been stamping for a while and has collected more products. It uses a few more supplies.
The background layer is essentially the same as the first card but uses Stampin’ Blends Markers to do the coloring instead of Stampin’ Write Markers. An additional layer of Polished Pink cardstock, was used on this card as well to pop the pink on the card. Also used the Polished Pink Open Weave Ribbon to tie all the pink together. Because a Casual Stamper has a few more products at their disposal than a Beginner, the results are similar but just a step up.
Check out the close-ups below.
Now that you have seen the Beginner card, and the card of a Casual Stamper, next, I will show you the card of an Avid Stamper. An Avid stamper is someone who has been crafting for quite a while and has acquired more than your average amount of supplies. They like to try new things and make unique cards using lots of extras.
Avid Stamping Words of Cheer Card
The Avid Stamper likes to add even more to a card. They not only have purchased the stamp set but also the matching dies. Ribbon and embellishments are almost always used. They own plenty of ink colors, additional die-cut sets, punches, and even Stampin’ Blends Markers. All those things when added to a card help it achieve a more “professional” look. On this card, the Words of Cheer Bundle, which is a stamp set and dies, was used. This card has a different opening. It is similar to a Dutch door. The inside of the card is showing on the bottom half of the card but it is not visible at the start. Down below are the close-ups.
I hope that you enjoyed this Simple Stamping Sunday blog post using the Words of Cheer Bundle. Every Sunday pop back in so that I can share more projects with you. I will leave you with images of all three cards. If you want to see last week’s Simple Stamping post, click here.
