Hello TJ Friends!
Today I'm sharing the new Jumping fish linograph stamp on a square card.
If you haven't tried something like this I hope you'll step outside your comfort zone, just a bit, and give this simple card technique a try.
Supplies needed:
3 square cards (I cut mine from card stock) 10 x5 scored
3 different colors of card stock. I usedd blue, green, yellow
Brown piece for the backing (mat)
Black ink
Optional black enamel dots
Optional foam
Adhesive
Paper cutter/Scissors
1) Stamp the tree branch silhouette background stamp around the perimeter ( front) of the card base and set aside.
2) Next - I started with 1/2 sheets of colored card stock and stamped (in black) the jumping fish stamp in the same place on each piece using a stamping platform.
3) Cut all three stamped pieces (at the same time) to 3 3/4 inches square (horizontal and vertical) and cut a brown piece to go behind that is slightly larger. *Be sure you have the image in the center as you are trimming it up.
4) Stack the 3 images on top of each other then cut them at 1.25" then 2.5. That should leave you with 3 pieces the same size - each 1.25 "
5) The FUN part...mix up the cut strips so each card will have 1 strip of each color and a piece that fits together. A mini puzzle.
6) Add foam (optional) to the back of each strip and adhere to the brown piece. Then adhere that to your card base.
7) Optional - add a few black enamel gems. You're done!
