Stamping for a New Season!

If you’re ready to stamp adorable spring cards and projects like the wreath, lamb card, and kite card shown today, then I have a great tip for you. You might reach first and foremost for your spring stamp sets, and that’s understandable. But remember that because My Acrylix are so easy to mix and match for magic results, you can be very free to pull images from just about any set.

For example, my “Out Like a Lamb” card uses images from a clearly baby-themed stamp set, Love You Forever, C1398. My “Think Spring” wreath uses leaves pulled from the “Flourished Blessings” stamp set, D1379, which is a favorite autumn set. By dressing up stamp images in a season-specific color combination—today’s features New England Ivy, Sweet Leaf, Goldrush, and Chocolate—I’ve reinvented images once intended for an entirely different purpose/season. And of course, there’s always the spring set perfectly used in a spring card: The “So Happy” card features our new “In the Month of March” set, C1404.

They all showcase great ways to use new sets and classic favorite sets for flexible, fabulous results, no matter the season!

  2. I know this isn't the best avenue, But I was just going to be ordering some more albums when I saw in the latest catalog that you aren't offering Indian Corn Blue anymore. Is there any way to get some other than ebay??? Just wondering.
