DIE CUT FLOWERS


Hi again, I got this flower Die at a craft show and have been playing with it and experimenting. Here is how I made this flower.


Here is the flower cut, put through a Dot Embossing folder, then inked

This is what you need for one flower



I spritz them and scrunched them, by doing this the embossed dots disappear but because you have inked them you still see the dots.
Cool Hay! Now layer your flowers, use a small bit of tape if you wish


Place a button or brand in the middle.


Here is a double page with the flowers on.






Have fun making flowers!!

HOW TO USE A STAMP-A-MA-JIG

How To Use a Stamp A Ma Jig
Stamp your bold or bottom image first

Place your Imaging Sheet right into the corner of the handle.






Ink up your stamp and stamp an image onto the sheet, making sure that the stamp is also right up in the corner of the handle.


This is what it looks like

Take your imaging sheet and place it on your cardstock, lining it up with your image in the position you would like it. Place the handle as shown below

Remove imaging sheet, while holding onto the handle, It is impotant to keep the handle in the same position so your image will come out correctly. slide stamp down the handle as shown below, one you have the stamp in place you can remove the handle when you are comfortable to do so.

There you have it, your lined up two step stamped image.

The STAMP-A-MA-JIG IS GREAT FOR TWO STEP FLOWERS, LIGNING UP ALPHABETS AND SAYING.
YOU CAN STAMP ON VELLUM TOO AND MAKE EXTRA TEMPLATES TO SAVE TIME WHEN USING YOUR FAVOURITE STAMP SET. JUST CUT A PIECE THE SAME SIZE AS THE IMAGING SHEET OR SMALLER TO FIT IN YOUR STAMP SET BOX. USE IT IN THE SAME WAY AS ABOVE.
HOPE THIS HELPS
