TRIPLE STAMPING
I'm a paper-miser, so I like to get as much out of my cardstock and patterned papers as I can. Here is a step-by-step photo tutorial of how I made my challenge card:
 | |
| Step 1: stamp an image and color it in |
I used Forest Green Shades Dye Ink to stamp 7040 Double Iris onto white CS which I colored with Peerless Watercolors using a wet paintbrush.
 |
| Step 2: cut a smaller layer out of the colored image (do this twice, making each layer smaller) |
Coved Rectangle Little Stackers dies were used to cut the smaller layers of the colored image.
Here are the three layers I created with the Coved Rectangle Little Stackers dies using the one piece of colored CS.
 |
| Step 3: mat the smaller layers onto black cardstock and trim around the edges then stack them up and glue them together |
I used scissors to cut close black mats for each smaller layer. Great Tape was used to adhere the layers on top of each other.
Cutting a patterned paper layer (from my stash) using CM2 Scalloped Rectangle Card Makers dies, I mounted the layers onto an A2 white card that I pounced with Peapod & Forget Me Not Shades™ dye inks. Lavender pearls were added to the corners on the patterned paper.
Here is my finished triple stamped card:
