Stamping on Everyday Arches die cuts

Stamping on a die cut elevates your card just a bit! For my 3 Everlasting Thanks card ideas today, I have used the Everyday Arches die as my focal point.

Card above: the base card is 4-1/4″ square and I offset the double layer Everyday Arches die on the base. The card is created so it still fits into a standard A2 size Stampin’ Up! medium envelope.

Card Below: I actually stamped onto the vellum piece, colored on the back, then layered it over the arch die. It kind of looks like it’s stamped on the arch but it’s not. I used the Basic Black Hybrid ink pad to stamp on the vellum.

Handmade card with pastel striped background, a vellum overlay, and “Thinking of You” in a blue scalloped label. Below, colorful flowers are stamped and colored. Arrows and text highlight the vellum’s size and coloring technique. “Patty Bennett” watermark at bottom. To read more, visit Patty Stamps (pattystamps.com)

Learn how to use Blends + Pencils together!

I enjoyed sharing how I add additional shading and depth to my colored images using Stampin’ Blends markers combined with Watercolor Pencils during my weekly live video. The replay is below in this post.

A handmade card with a red polka dot border, white arch panel, and “’tis the Season” in red script. Below the text is a bouquet of red poinsettias and green foliage, adorned with a red and white bow. The card sits on a wood surface. To read more, visit Patty Stamps (pattystamps.com)

Above/Below: I created a card for the Christmas Season by coloring the flowers in this Everlasting Thanks image in Real Red & Poppy Parade stamped onto an arch, then layering it on paper from the Timeless Christmas pack. Adding the stamped greeting and the Christmas Berries embellishments, topped off with a bow from the Elegantly Wrapped bundle finished my card.

Handmade holiday card with “’tis the Season” in red script, decorated with red poinsettias, greenery, and a striped bow. Card sits on a wood surface next to red gem embellishments shaped like holly berries. Patty Bennett’s watermark is visible on the image. To read more, visit Patty Stamps (pattystamps.com)
