Delicious! I love the bold graphic look of this watermelon stamp from Mouthwatering (Occasions Mini Catalog). Todays 1 Minute to WOW! video tutorial shares tips for getting the perfect slice.
STAMPIN’ PRETTY TIPS:
- Yummy discovery! The watermelon image fits like a glove in the 2 1/2″ Circle Punch. Just crop with the punch and then slice off half. No snipping required!
- The secret to those “seeds?” Early Espresso Card Stock and the Stampin’ Up! Blossom Bouquet Triple Layer Punch.
- The “sweet” sentiment is from Fabulous Phrases rubber stamp set. It’s my “little black dress” of sentiment essentials.
- SAVE IT! Speaking of essentials . . . if you need a “go to” sketch for a card, this one is simple, versatile and quick.
- A COOL TIP regarding Stampin’ Up! Stampin’ Write Markers was shared with me by fellow demonstrator, Patti MacDermott: The brush end has a thicker ring around the marker and the fine point end has a thinner ring. You can figure out which end is which even if the brush images aren’t showing.
