Oval Occasions for Swap cards.

Oval Occasions for Swap

Here is the first of two cards using Oval Occasions for Swap that I did last week. This very Springy stamp set and coordinating punch is from the January – June Mini. It is for a Birthday card, but this could very easily be an Easter or with Love card too.

I choose to use Crumb Cake as my neutral (shocking) adding in Blushing Bride and Blackberry Bliss. OHHH yes that is a sprig of new Blackberry Bliss ribbon.

I wanted to share a BIG tip. However, this first, there are 13 stamps in this stamp set. The face of this card has seven of them. Keep in mind that I made 22 of these cards.

Stamparatus to the Rescue!!

Here is how I did it. Using both of the plates that are included with the Stamparatus. I set up the sentiments up on one. and the heart “flourish” and the flowers on the second plate. NOTE: stamp on scrap paper until you get the stamps as you want them. When setting up this all up I did stamp the bunny rabbits too.

Why, you ask??

To be sure that there was more than enough room. AND so that you would be able to see all the stuff going on! Grab your Wink of Stella to color, a few rhinestones and you are ready to tie your ribbon.

Hugs and Have a Great Day getting Crafty!!
