Stamping with the STARS #357: Color Blocking Inspiration

The DOstamperSTARS are excited to bring you another Stamping with the STARS Inspiration Hop #DOswts357.  This week we’re sharing a Color Blocking Inspiration.

During our Monthly STARS Zoom Meeting last month, my team member and friend, Jan Carlson shared a Color Blocking Technique with everyone.  It looks really fun, so we decided to make it our theme inspiration for this month.

I’m lovin’ the bright colors I chose to go with this fun birthday stamp set, Hooray To You.  I just pops off the card with a black card base.

How’d She DO That? Hooray To You card

  • Stamps: Hooray To You
  • Paper:
    • Basic Black (4-1/4″ x 11″ card base)
    • Whisper White (3-5/8″ x 4-7/8″)
    • Highland Heather, Mango Melody, Daffodil Delight & Magenta Madness (3-1/2″ x 4-3/4″)
    • Basic White (scrap for punch)
  • Ink:  Tuxedo Black Memento
  • Other:  Stamparatus, Paper Trimmer, Classic Label Punch, Snail Mail Twine Combo, Black Matte Dots, Stampin’ Seal, Glue Dots & Stampin’ Dimensionals

DOstamping Tips:

  • Using the Stamparatus, stamp images on all 4 panels of colored cardstock with black ink.  (I did need to stamp each one 2 times to get a nice clean stamped image)
  • Use the Paper Trimmer to cut each panel as follows:
    • 1-1/4″ off the top,
    • turn and cut off right edge at 1-1/2″ ,
    • then turn and cut off 1″ of the “birthday”.
    • NOTE:  I cut two panels at a time.  If you can – cutting all 4 panels at a time is optimal.
  • Sort pieces into 4 piles of 1 color/shape per pile.  You’ll get 4 cards – yay!
  • Assemble on white panel, like a puzzle.
