Here is my first attempt:
I really wanted to use the Pirouette stamp for this to see how it would look. I really like the effect, but let me tell you, I need more practice with this stamp because it is large! Large, and solid, lol. It left some blank spaces to fill in with a black marker, but that really wasn't too difficult to fix up. I also must have been a little crooked, because my sentiment is running downhill, lol. Ooops! See, bloggers make mistakes too! I admit, I was in a hurry to see how it would look. Lesson learned! Slow down and get it right. Now I know I like the look, so I will definitely make more of these! ;)
I made a total of SIX different cards like this tonight! I will post others in the days to come, but here are two more right now:
For both of these cards I used the Pemberley Workshop Stamp set from the previous Idea Book. I used the Pemberley Paper Packet which is still available to try a pattern paper as the mat on the first card. I like the effect, but I LOVE how the darker, solid mat makes it POP!
Which one do you prefer? I would love to know!
Remember, I am having a giveaway for anyone who orders on my website through my Card Workshop Gathering and helps me reach my goal this month! I am soooooo close!!! Read about it HERE!
I love all three cards. I just taught this to some gals tonight. I learned my technique from Dawn as well. I LOVE the Pemberley WOTG cards. I prefer the one with cardstock but if that one wasn't around to compare, I'd love the one with the B&T paper too. That's a great way to use up a bit of my Pemberley B&T too. Thanks for the great post.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the awesome feedback! I am also going to do this at my next workshop. You will see the card in a few days! ;)
DeleteI love them all Amie! I like how you did this technique with the B&T paper, would not have thought of that. Thanks for sharing this with us!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I have been wanting to try it and finally had the time! :)

I really love that paper and stamp too! Thanks for stopping in--come back soon to see more triple stamping. :)
DeleteAmie, you always do amazing cards. I'm partial to the black mat. I love black and white with a pop of color, so that wins my vote. I've been wanting to try this card and haven't had the time. I may have to do that now.
ReplyDeleteI guess my smart phone isn't so smart! I replied yesterday, and it isn't here, lol. You have to try these, Dana--super easy and fun! You are too kind about my cards...I never thought I would make cards more than scrapbook! ;)
DeleteWhat a cool technique! Must try this! It was awesome to meet you in St. Louis at the Regional Celebration, Amie! You have a new follower in ME. :) Blessings to you!
ReplyDeleteHi, Jane!!! SOOOO happy to see you again so soon. ;) I am glad to have met you as well--what a whirlwind! See you on your blog soon, too. God bless!
DeleteI LOVE these...especially the pirouette! I don't have that stamp set yet. I keep adding it to my order, taking it off, adding it, taking it off. I think it will stay on next time :)
