2 Tag Cards ~ 1 Background Stamp Two Ways Tutorial

Hello, Gaylynn here. Here is a way to stretch your background stamps while also using your handmade tags. Today, on the Unity blog, I am sharing 2 tag cards using 1 background stamp two ways.

Changing up colors and texture is a great way to use background stamps. This technique shows how to use 1 background stamp two ways for two different tag cards.

These are the cards, individually.

Helpful tips:

Here are helpful tips for making these . To begin, stamp the background twice onto white cardstock, using kraft color ink. Next, on one of the backgrounds mark your paper placement to prepare for restamping later. Then, leave the background stamp affixed to the original Misti or stamp positioning tool. Next, for the purple card, color in some of the flowers and then restamp using embossing ink, keeping the placement the same. Then, heat emboss in gold. Also, stamp and heat emboss the sentiment panel using a different stamp positioner or after the background is completed. Next, using the extra kraft color background, make another card without color or embossing. Just add a premade tag and die-cut sentiment. Finally, layer both cards, to finish.

This is another look at the two cards.

Here is my video tutorial for this project. It will detail the full process.
