Awesome Trusty Tools

The Trust Tools Stamp Set (163274) and Dies (162722) is a fun one for my family, we’ve been doing home improvements for as long as I can remember.

And our children joined us in projects from a young age learning as we did. So this stamp set was one that I know I would use over and over again.

Today’s card is one I thought was great as soon as I saw it and I could see myself CASING.

The background stamped using the Painted Stripes stamp (Online Exclusive 165437) uses our rich Secret Sea, an 2025-2027 In Color . The little paint brush has been colored with our Blender Pens (102845) and Classic Ink Pads. This way of adding color has added depth and shade variances to the image. The piece of Basic Beige 3/8″ Classic Ribbon (165216) adds a fun bit of texture to the project.

What do you think? Do you like this card as much as I do? If you are a DYI person I think you’ll enjoy this stamp set and dies too.

Monochromatic Year of Flowers

Do you love a monochromatic card? I know I do. When I began stamping this was a great way of creating cards with limited supplies. And our In Colors both are great to start with since there are only 5 colors in a family or to add fun trendy colors to your collection.

Today’s card is a monochromatic card highlighting our Strawberry Slush 2025-2027 In Color.

This card uses two different Online Exclusives, the Year of the Flower stamp set (Online Exclusive 165367) and Painted Stripes stamp (Online Exclusive 165437).

This stamp set contains a full year of stamps with monthly flowers making it wonderful for birthday cards all year round.

The Painted Stripes stamp is a large stamp with built in shading so it’s a great stamp for backgrounds and adding a bit of interest to a project, And when you use a punch like the Modern Oval Punch ( 162234) stamping is easy. I loved punches when I first started stamping since they allowed me to get great centered images every time. Simply flip the punch over, line it up in the window, and punch!

And of course a bit of texture has been added with the Strawberry Slush 3/8″ Faux Linen Ribbon (165274) which is lovely and ties wonderfully.

Did you know that each of our In Colors have a variety of options to choose from? You can buy our assortment packs, or individual pack of card stock. Accessories come in assortment packs. Or like our ribbon individual colors making it a great way to quickly choose a color and get started crafting.
