Rubber Stamping Projects

We have several rubber stamps of Poinsettias for the holiday crafter. In this post, I'll show you some examples of super cute Christmas themed paper projects using red and green stamping inks. Our  Labrador Christmas Rubber Stamp  is designed to compliment our  Poinsettia Border Rubber Stamp . Above is a simple Christmas card featuring both. The flowers flow from the truck to the outside circle. The  Season's Greetings Rubber Stamp  is featured on the top A2 card.  Tip: when using die cuts on cards, especially intricate ones like the oval shaped one, glue it down using a glue stick. This looks good when using a different color in the same shade family, like a dark green and light green card stock. Above are some gift boxes that feature: Color Me Poinsettia Rubber Stamp  (bottom gift box) Holly Background Rubber Stamp (middle gift box)  and Poinsettia Border Rubber Stamp  stamped in a dark green ink, watercolored in and gold glitter glue added...

One of the butterfly stamps from our Butterflies Rubber Stamp Set (SKU 5x702001) makes a perfect centerpiece to this A2 landscape card.   The embossed paper was made using folder by Lifestyle Crafts, 'Whimsy' (from Michaels).  And the paper is also from Michaels' new Recollections Cardstock Spiral pad.  Inside the card, I stamped Japanese Waves Rubber Stamp (SKU 4x600042) onto white paper to create a border for the note writing section.  Because of the embossed design, the waves match the front of the card nicely! The butterfly design, was stamped with Memento Dew Drop London Fog (grey) ink and filled in with a Copic No.2 Neutral Gray marker as the base.  For the wing colors, I used yellow glitter marker Marvy Uchida, R20 Blush Copic marker, and a black watercolor pencil to create the center shadow lines of the wings.  It's hard to narrow down the options for coloring in butterfly wings.  The possibilities are endless!
