All things stamped from me to you. Remember there are no mistakes in stamping just Happy Accidents! Stamping is an adventure to be experienced so have a cup of tea and relax while visiting. All comments are welcome and appreciated.
Got out my border dies to use on these cards with the candles. For the candles I inked them up with CP inks ... still my go to ink pads for now. Don't forget to go to Simon Says blog to check out STAMPtember this month. All these candle images are from this new release.
Here are a few more samples with the candles, that were stamped with Simon Hurley stamping block. If you haven't checked out his videos using this tool you should. It can become additive.
To see how additive I've become with the stamping block ... please take a look here. Keep in mind this is the new Simon Hurley stamping block with Ranger but back in the day there was the blue Penscore stamping block. Here's a look at the blue Penscore block. I've had the Penscore block for years but wasn't blogging back then. I'm sure if you look at you tube you can find it.
card #1 stamps used: Blue Knight Medical Rescue stamp set
Got out an old product that has been in my stash for years called Penscore. It's a blue sponge that can be heated with heat tool, then you press items or even a stamp into it. If you look at the background strip you can see the result of the pressing of the Penscore.
I have scheduled this video to be a premiere at 1 p.m. est. on Tuesday, July 20, 2021. Please subscribe to my you tube channel so you will be notified and then you can chat when it goes live.
