Easy Card Design for Outline Stamps — No need to color!

Happy Tuesday, all! Today I have a fun card design featuring the newest STAMPtember collaboration stamp set from The Greeting Farm called Winter Is Here! I love all the people stamps from The Greeting Farm–they’re awesome for coloring! However, for this card, I decided to create a design that does not require coloring. Instead, I did some ink blending!

NOTE: As with all STAMPtember collaboration stamp sets, this is a limited edition stamp set. Once it’s sold out, it will not be restocked. You’ll want to grab this stamp set now. :)

(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).

Before stamping all the cute images from the Winter Is Here stamp set, I used four colors of Distress Oxide Ink to create a blended background. I used Cracked Pistachio, Mermaid Lagoon, Blueprint Sketch, and Black Soot.

After the ink blending was dry, I stamped images from the stamp set in VersaMark ink and applied white embossing powder. Then I heat set it until it was smooth and melted.

For the greeting, I stamped and embossed the “Winter is here” greeting and die cut it using a circle die. I cut an additional vellum circle to put behind the greeting as well. I adhered the greeting using Ranger Multi Medium Matte adhesive.

Thanks for stopping by!
