Celebrate America | Stamp Once Get Two Cards

 


Hello, my fellow Junkies!  Michael here with his first post on the Technique Junkies Design Team Blog.  I LOVE July 4th and miss it terribly.  And, I may not get to enjoy fireworks but I do enjoy making cards for July 4th.  And I love getting more bang for my buck.  

To make these two cards I used one stamp - the Celebrate America stamp.  I love this stamp but, man, it's a big one!  So I stamped it once on white cardstock using Tuxedo Black Memento ink.  Then I cut the image in half, giving me two stamps.  There are so many words on this stamp that cutting it in half is easy peasy.  

Next, I made my 2 cards.  One card I used a star embossing folder with a piece of blue cardstock, which I adhered to the card front.  Then I layered half my card on red, white and blue cardstock and adhered that to the front.  For my other card, I adhered strips of red, white, and blue cardstock and then I layered the other half - again on red, white, and blue cardstock and then to the card front.  Done!


Done!  Stamp once, cut once, and make two cards.  What do you think of this idea?  I'd love to know.  Leave a comment below.  AND, if you want to save 10% on this stamp or anything else on the website, use my code TJ10Michael.

Stay safe this July 4th.
