Todays Christmas in July project was using a few old Craft Stamper magazine stamps as part of my sort out project I’ve been doing for a while now which I stamped, cut and added as a background mat layer.
I stamped the main image two times using Starry Night ink that I blotted a little first so it was a bit paler.
Then I cut the panels into different sizes for the different cards.

One I added the Joy stamp which I stamped and fussy cut, and the little sparkly stars.

The next I cut smaller and added onto the silver glimmer mat.

I then added gems to bring some more sparkle but decided against adding the Joy stamped word.

Fairly clean and simple cards for me this time. What do you think? I must admit as much as I like that Joy word I can’t see me using it much. The other one though I can imagine using albeit not that often as I tend to make OTT cards for Christmas rather than these simple ones… maybe that stays but the Joy stamp gets added to the go pile!
Have plenty more of these craft stamper magazine stamps to sort through and assess … but that’s two more sifted! and two more cards made.
Happy crafting!
