Bumbleberry Blog — Stamping

Hello there, it is Verity here from Pretty Little Button for the Bumbleberry Design team. Scene building is such a great way to build a card, but the scene doesn't always have to take over the whole of the card. Masked ink blended whimsy scenes are great for creating a small scene that jumps off the card as though you've caught a moment in time.  I used the fun Need A Hand stamp set from Hero Arts and it comes with some beautiful whimsy underwater stamps. Paired with ink blending and white space you have two modern whimsy cards!  Written and photos...

 Good Morning Everyone, I do hope your staying well. I am an avid collector of succulents. My prize collect not only adorns my kitchen window, but also spreads to my craft room, and screen saver on my phone as well.  I spotted the Brutus Monroe Stamp and thought that is just up my street. Some times stamp set just leap out at us. So once this arrived I decided it was time to pull out the Zig Real Brush Markers and water brush.     Products Brutus Monroe Succulent Boarder Stamp Set https://www.bumbleberrys.co.uk/collections/brutus-monroe/products/succulent-6x6-background-stamp Strathmore Bristol Smooth Cardstock 5 1/4" Square...

 Well Hello There, I'm back today with more fun playing with the turnabout stamps. These seem daunting at first, but trust me now we have the jig its a doddle. I fell in love with the Positive print that concord and 9th brought out. I had to have a go at some awesome backgrounds. But I have struggled in the past. Using the jig, made it so much easier. No mistakes!!!! I feel this design is very trendy at the moment. Products Concord & 9th Positive Print Turnabout Stamp Concord & 9th "Hey Friend" Stamp Set Card 1 Fresh Cut...

Hello lovelies!This week I want to share an appreciation card I made using Brutus Monroe's "Geared Owl" stamp! I used my Misti stamping tool to stamp my image using Gina K's Amalgam Jet Black ink. I coloured it with my alcohol markers, sticking to grey/brown/golden tones. I used a white gel pen to add some highlights and details before fussy cutting it out. I used Mama Elephant's "Basic Rectangles" Creative Cuts to cut out three panels, two from Neenah Classic Crest white card stock and one from black card stock. I cut a window in my smallest panel using Honey...
