I was so excited to see my kit when it arrived!

Can’t help it, I just love tissue paper and fun packaging.

Once I unpacked the supplies I was ready to start my cards.

I started by peeling the stamp off it’s plastic and adhered it to the clear block, making sure it was straight.

Then I used the blue ink pad and dabbed it over the stamp.

I then practiced using the stamp, on my first try I did not use even pressure when stamping so some of the stamp didn’t show up. On my second try I got the even pressure right and the whole stamp turned out great. I then practiced making several stamps in a row. Once I got that down I was ready to start on my cards.

You can also use the color block to make some fun patterns on your envelopes. Start by dabbing the ink pad in a random order.

Once the whole pad is covered with ink you are ready to stamp!

I started in the corner and worked my way around.

Here is how it looks finished.

I tried it out on the flap only and really like the look.

After all my practicing here are my finished thank you and congratulations cards and tags!

My life gets pretty crazy being a wife, mom and blogger, this is the kind of craft that I miss doing because I don’t always have time to go out and purchase the supplies.
