Verve Stamps Giveaway
Happy {Inter}National Scrapbook Day Hybrid Chicks! One of the things I love about hybrid papercrafts is the ability to combine my new love of digi papers with my old love of stamping. Today I’m going to show you a few examples of how I’ve used printed digi papers just like I’d use “regular” Designer Printed paper on some stamped card projects. And best of all? Our very own Julee Tilman, owner of Verve Stamps, is offering a VERY generous stamp set to one lucky winner who comments on this post!!
I absolutely LOVE incorporating digi papers on my card projects and typically print out several blocks of coordinating digi prints on a single 8.5×11 inch sheet of paper. I’ll cut those papers just like I would regular store-bought paper and use them along with a cardstock base and some stamped images & sentiments plus a few physical embellishments on my card projects. The card above uses digi papers from the Just Breathe paper pack by Kelley Mickus combined with the Flowers of Tomorrow Plain Jane by Verve Stamps. I added some Kraft cardstock, some real stitching, a folded piece of ribbon and a mini library clip (Stampin’ Up) as embellishment.
Here are few more samples combining digi papers and stamped images/sentiments:
On this card, I used the Whisper Paper Pack by Kelley Mickus and the new Because of You stamp set and the Elegant Flower Plain Jane by Verve Stamps. (Sketch is Lauren Meader’s Saturday Sketch #19)Verve’s stamps look beautiful when stamped directly on printed digi papers! I used a Kraft Cardstock base and added some Chocolate Chip cardstock matting to some of the digi paper panels. The stamped flower was cut out with my hobby blade and I added a large vanilla brad to the center. Some chocolate ribbon completed the physical embellishments. The main sentiment panel is popped up on 3-dimensional adhesive for some added depth.
This last card once again uses a Kraft cardstock base. This time I used the Flight of Fancy mini kit included in Elise’s Pieces May Grab Bag. Isn’t that airplane embellishment adorable!?! I cut it out with my hobby knife and popped it up on 3-dimensional adhesive. The stamped sentiment is from Verve’s Beautiful Kindness, attached with some simple staples. And finally, some more chocolate ribbon to finish it off!
So there you have it! Some fun and easy samples of how you can incorporate stamping in your hybrid projects! How about a giveaway? How’d you like a chance to win some of those amazing Verve stamps you’ve heard me raving about? Here’s a look at what we’re giving away:
