Today I am showing you how to create guidelines for lining up your stamped letters, as well as lend a notebook or academic quality to your projects. All stamps shown on this project are in my new Lots of Letters 2 set.The solid line works double duty as stems for the flowers and the clear photopolymer stamp allows it to be curved as desired. In the video I use the same design as the teacher one below, but spelled F is for Friend instead, which works for so many occasions.:) (FYI: Teacher Appreciation week is May 5-9th, so I am ready to go with this making a bunch of this simple design!) ;)
Note: I said in the video all the circle elements in Lots of letters 2 fit inside the flower, which of course they do, but I actually meant to say the various circles in my previous set with the lowercase letters, Lots of Letters.
Supplies:
Gina K. Designs Lots of Letters 2
Gina K. Black Onyx, Ocean Mist, Innocent Pink, Grass Green ink pads
Pure Luxury White and Innocent Pink cardstock
Spellbinders On the Edge die
4" x 5 1/4" white mat
