Using the co-ordinating Blends Pens, both light and dark, I coloured in the handles of the paintbrushes. The decorated layer was then adhered to the Night of Navy panel.

A length of 2022 – 2024 In Color Twine was wrapped around the panel and secured on the back with Sellotape. The whole piece was then mounted onto the Granny Apple Green card base on Dimensionals.

The sentiment, from the Artistically Inked stamp set was stamped in Versamark ink onto the strip of Night of Navy card. I covered it with White Embossing Powder and heat set it. The ends were flagged and the strip was mounted over the twine on Dimensionals.

Fantastic new stamp positioning tool by Stampin' Up!

The Stamparatus is coming……..

Posted on by

The Stamparatus – Stampin’ Up!’s new stamp positioning tool is coming soon and will be available to pre-order from 09.00pm on 16 November – 30 November – while stocks last and will be shipped out around the 1st February 2018. I am beyond excited about this and will definitely be reserving my Stamparatus as soon as I can. Click on this link to see how it works -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3teCr7Xo4G8&feature=youtu.be

Here’s why I want one;

  • It’s can be used with both red rubber and Photopolymer stamps
  • There is a foam mat to use with Photopolymer stamps
  • It has 2 open sides so you can stamp on larger paper and cardstock
  • It has integral rulers and grid lines for quick and easy measuring. Please note that the UK version will be metric only
  • It has 2 reversible plates making a total of 4 surfaces to work with. This means endless possibilities with 2, 3 or even 4 step stamping.
  • Both plates can simply be unhinged and moved down making it much easier to stamp a line of the same image or a repeating patter.
  • 2 bar magnets included to hold the paper in place and there is an area underneath the Stamparatus to store the magnets

Retail Price – £44.00 – Reserve your copy on 16 November 2017 (from 9.00 pm) by visiting my On-line Shop.
