1 Stamp Set, 3 Ways (Border Stamps) – Make a Card Monday #282

Happy Monday, all! Today I’m sharing with you three things to do with border stamps, specifically the Whimsical Wildflowers Frame stamp set from Gina K Designs. I create two cards and an envelope!

(Wondering what I used in this video? Everything is linked to multiple sources in the thumbnails at the end of this post, or in the text below. Compensated affiliate links used when possible).

The first card was created by gold heat embossing the border image twice on black cardstock, with the greeting in the middle. Super simple and easy!

The second card features repeat stamping to create a full frame. I created a mask of the border image using Gina K Masking Magic Paper and used it while stamping so the frame was seamless. I stamped on Bristol paper and colored the frame using Arteza Real Brush Pens.

To finish off the card, I die cut the Thinking of You die from Simon four times and stacked the diecuts. This give lots of dimension to the greeting.

To round things out, I created an envelope. This design was similar to the first card, however this time I put the name and mailing address in between the border images. I colored the flowers using Faber-Castell Polychromos colored pencils.

NOTE: Mailing address used with permission. Thanks, Amy!

Thanks for stopping by today! You can get the Whimsical Wildflowers Frame stamp set in the Gina K Designs shop. I’ll be back soon with a new card video. :)
