MYSTERY STAMPING! Last Thursday I met virtually with my Stampin’ Pretty Pals Community and we had a BLAST with Mystery Stamping! A supply list (with lots of individual choices) and proportions were provided in advance. Clues were presented during the virtual gathering and each Pal worked on their own creation.
The cards that I am sharing with you below are my concept of the clues shared with the Pals.
STAMPIN’ PRETTY STEP-BY-STEP TUTORIAL (NO FUN-FOLD):
Begin with a 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 Very Vanilla Thick card base.
Layer and adhere a 3 3/4 x 5 piece of Very Vanilla card stock to a 4 x 5 1/4 piece of Basic Black card stock together and to the card base with Stampin’ Seal.
Adhere a 3 3/4 x 2 3/4 piece of Simply Elegant Designer Series Paper to the bottom portion of the card with Stampin’ Seal.
Adhere a 2 1/4 x 4 piece of Simply Elegant Designer Series Paper to a 2 1/2 x 4 1/4 piece of Very Vanilla card stock with Stampin’ Seal.
Triple wrap with vanilla Baker’s Twine Essentials, securing with a bow.
Adhere to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Use a Stamparatus to stamp the sentiment (Art Gallery Stamp Set) in Tuxedo Black Memento onto a piece of Very Vanilla card stock.
Crop with a Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine and the coordinating Floral Gallery die.
Adhere with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
POP OF PERSONALITY! Embellish with three Matte Black Dots.
