Garden Greenhouse 2-Step Stamping

Today's post features 2-step stamping. Many stamp sets are designed to use 2 different stamps to create a single image. The stamp set: Greenhouse Garden is an example. Look at the lovely shading in these flowers. The set comes with the parts to create 3 different flowers using 6 different stamps.

The top card was done in  Tangerine Tango and Daffodil Delight with Peach Parfait ribbon. The sentiment is from Short and Sweet and layered on the Word Window punch and then the Modern Label Punch.

The bottom card is on a base of Always Artichoke with the grass from Inspired by Nature stamped in Artichoke. The flowers were Stamped in Regal Rose and Rose Red, and Wisteria Wonder and Concord Grape. The ribbon on this one is Pear Pizzazz.

This stamp set makes such beautiful images. The stamps are fairly forgiving, you really don't have to do much to line them up. It just looks good no matter what you do.

The little tag on the 2nd card was made using a set called Tiny Tags and punched with the Jewelry Tag punch. Its held on with some Linen Thread. The first card was one of the Make&Takes from a workshop this week and the 2nd card was from the August Stamp-a-Stack.

Be sure to check the class schedule. We have a fun time and you get a chance to meet new people who share your hobby.  Everyone is welcome, even if you are a new stamper or have never stamped before. We take care of you and you will have fun.

Hope to see you at an event soon
