TWO DEER OPEN SLEIGH

Bonjour et Hello,

I've seen some wonderful ideas for the Santa's Sleigh Thinlits and

chose to CASE Tracy's Santa's Sleigh.

My version, I created a side, so if I decide to put something inside it won't slide out.

Merci et Thank you for dropping by!

PUNCH ME BABY, ONE MORE TIME.....

Bonjour et Hello

Remember when I enclosed this template?

Here is the info on how I created my template for my coordinating stamps and punch bundles

Label your template with "front" before punching your card stock

Place card stock all the way into the punch until the paper stops at the back of the punch

We use the "FRONT" side only

As you can see, when I have my clear-mount block down and the stamp image facing up

the images are "mirrored"
but it will all be fine because when you stamp on your card stock,
it will be correct lining up the punch

Now you have the perfect placement of your stamp to ink up and stamp with

I like to place my stamp block on the table with the image and place my ink onto the image
this way I can control the pressure of the ink pad and see how much ink is on the image

Line up the image and punch!

Make sure you stamp close to the bottom edge of the cardstock

If it is too far up from the bottom you won't be able to align the punch

Voila, here is my template ready to use when ever I want to match my image to my punch

Bundle away and punch away to make templates for your co-ordinating stamps and punches!

Merci et Thank you for dropping by!

TIPPING THURSDAY - MATCHING BUNDLES

Bonjour et Hello!

I thought I would give you a TIP on Thursday!

I am a BUNDLER!

I love purchasing stamp sets and their coordinating Punch, Framelits or Thinlits.

Who doesn't like to save 10% when purchasing both items!

I saw Connie's wonderful tip for matching your stamp sets with your bundle

Label what the matching cutting tool you would use with the set.

P= Punch

T = Thinlits

F = Framelits

I use the Labeler Alphabet Stamp Set (how appropriate!),

Uninked Stampin' Spots and loaded it up with the Real Red ink refill.
Once you stamped your letter, you need to let the ink set
The insert is very glossy and will tend to smear the ink.
If you can't wait, blot it with a paper towel, Kleenex or anything that will absorb the ink.

I enclose a template so I can line up my images with my blocks.......

that's for a future post!

Did you notice the dots on the spine of my case?

They are to quickly identify which season that stamps are.

Green dot - Christmas

Orange dot - Fall/Halloween

and so on.

Here is what it would look like on my shelf.

Here is a fun game.......kind of like "Where's Waldo"

Can you find which stamp sets that I still need to work on....?
