♪ ♫ I wanna STAMP with somebody.... ♫ ♪

♪ I wanna use the INK with somebody ♫  ♪

It's amazing what you can do with stamps.
I often forget to use my stamps, and then the girls go and do
amazing things with them and I'm all gung-ho to get mine out.

Designer Tip: On this layout I wanted the stamped clocks to be the main embellishments on my layout. To make sure they really catch the eye, I stamped them on a piece of a paper, cut them out and then layered them using foamtape. I added a few circles that I cut out from the Country Garden 'Glimpse' paper, a banner and three fussy cut butterflies to finish off my layout. As you can see, you don't need many pre-made embellishments to achieve an embellished look. A few cut out and stamped images will do too.

This is a great tip from Romy!  Just sayin'... I tried to google translate the title, and it must be a dutch saying cuz the literal translation is " 2 hands on 1 belly."  So Romy, will you tell us what it means and where the saying comes from pretty please???

Card Kit Personified
by Debbie Sherman

 I love how easy it is to add to the card kits.
You can make them as simple or as complicated as you want.
I also love that the stamps coordinate so well with the line.


 It's so awesome what a little embossing powder, charm and fiber does to a card.
Designer Tip: To add a little exta to the Serenity card kit I added stamping with the coordinating stamps from the Serenity line. I embossed them with ultra thick gold powder to give the cards more texture and to make the stamping stand out from the rich colors of the paper.


I hope that song is stuck in your heads like it is mine now... ha ha
Happy Stamping and make sure to share with us!

  1. 2 hands on 1 belly roughly translates as "partners in crime", or "through thick & thin". Best friends.

    Nice lay out, Romy!

  2. Lovely layouts... I'm an avid stamper, but then I'm not so much for the layouts, so it's more automatic for me. These are beautiful!
