March Stamp of the Month Ideas - Choose Happy

March Stamp of the Month Ideas - Choose Happy


Just over one week left to grab this month's SOM! $27 or just $5 with an order of $75. These fun frames and borders look great whether they are stamped in a colour or stamped in black and then coloured in with our ShinHan Markers. Just a few little dabs of colour make them look even more special.


For these cards I used our Vine embossing folder to emboss some Flaxen cardstock for the mat. I stamped the frames in black ink and then coloured some sections with our ShinHan markers. I added Teal Shimmer Trim and Purple Glitter Gems to the card on the left and a Chocolate cardstock strip with Flaxen Extra Thick Twine to the card on the right.




 This card I have made has a mat in Sorbet Cardstock. I random stamped a White Daisy mat in Black Ink and then stamped a Sorbet Ink frame on a scrap of White Daisy. I stamped "you're special" in black and cut the frame out with my Non-stick Micro Tip Scissors. I used 3D-Foam tape adhere the frame, giving it dimension. Add a puffy heart in matching Sorbet colour and it's done. Easy-peasy. I love how it symbolises someone who is unique, is special!

Never-Ending Card
This is my first attempt at making a never-ending card. I followed a tutorial that I found on Split-Coast Stampers website and found it much easier than it looks!
I used up my leftover Free to Be Me papers and of course, March SOM.
This time I cut out the centre of the stamped frames with my scissors and added some gold Sequins and Teal Shimmer Trim for embellishments.
