The Spirited Snowmen stamp set is so cheery. It brings a smile to my face!
The snowman is stamped with Momento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored in with Stampin' Blends. I used the Color Lifter to give the snowman more depth, a slight snowy glow, and to stand out more from the Whisper White cardstock background.
The inside of the card is stamped with two angled rows of snowflakes - one in Pacific Point and one in Pool Party. I love the striped effect!
I really enjoyed creating this card! I am looking forward to making more projects with both of these stamp sets! I do recommend a few tips when stamping with the Buffalo Check stamp.
- Make sure your ink pad is well-inked.
- Press the ink pad all over the Buffalo Check stamp several times to ensure good ink coverage.
- Use the Stamparatus with the Buffalo Check stamp because the stamp is so detailed that some spots make not get as inked well or have enough pressure when stamped to get a crisp image on the first try. The Stamparatus will keep the stamp and the paper in the same place, so you can reink and stamp again.
- If a small spot did not yield a crisp image, use a Stampin' Write Marker in the same color as the ink pad to fill in the small spot.
Have fun and play! Be sure to try the Buffalo Check stamp on a variety of cardstock colors and in a variety of ink pad colors. Mix and match to find the combinations you like best!
You can find the measurements and a supply list at the end of this post.
