Stamping Technique Using DRYER SHEETS by Sharen Grimsley

"Holly Card"

by Sharen Grimsley

 

This is a really simple and unique Christmas card idea using an ordinary, 

everyday object - dryer sheets! 

Sharen has been telling everyone to "save your dryer sheets" for two months - 

now we all know why! :)

   To make the holly part of this card you will need:

• 1 USED dryer sheet (must be used - new sheets are too stiff)
  
• Stamp of your choice
• Ink pad (we prefer Memento)
• Copic Markers (or other coloring medium)
• Glue Stick  

First, stamp onto white cardstock. 
For this card, Sharen used the "Holly Sprig" stamp by Memory Box and a "Tuxedo Black" Memento ink pad.

Guide for coloring "Holly Sprig" stamp.

Next, using Copic Markers (or other coloring medium of your choice) color in the stamped
image. 

For this card, Sharen used the following Copic markers:  
C-2, G-82, G-24, G-0000, YG-63, G-0000, R-29, RV-29, RV-69, & YG-95 


Sharen made the guide to the right for coloring in the stamped holly leaves (hopefully you can see the different shading)!



After your stamp is colored, take a glue stick and coat the top.  Really load it up with glue! If you think you've glued enough... go back over it again! :) And make extra sure to get the edges where your paper has been trimmed.  

Now take the dryer sheet and place on top.  If your sheet is wrinkled, just take the edges and pull until the wrinkles disappear.  Look again at the edges to make sure the sheet is sticking.  Then take scissors and cut around the edge of your paper, trimming away the excess dryer sheet. 

Sharen stamped, colored, and "fussy cut" a second holly leaf to glue on the inside of this card to cover the back side of the little brad that shows on the front.  She decorated the inside of her card using a simple "Merry Christmas" stamp, stamped in black ink on Christmas green cardstock.












The front of this card was embellished with gold ribbon, tied in a simple knot, and a brad.

See! Simple, easy, and unique!

Variety Poppy Cards with Penny Black Stamp by Sharen Grimsley

Isn't it amazing how one stamp can be made to look so different?! 

"Poppy Cards" 

by Sharen Grimsley

  All of these cards were made using the same 

"Poppy Poem" stamp by Penny Black! 

The photos above were shaded using
COPIC markers.

Decorating Chalks are another method that can be used to color these images!

Sharen used a gray color to smudge around the outside of her poppies to give them a little dimension.  

She stamped and shaded two images. She then "fussy cut" one image and layered it on top of the second, using 1/16" pop dots.

Various Martha Stewart Edge punches were used to decorate the outer edges of these cards.
