Hello! Today I’ve got a video showing the process for making these notecards up on my YouTube channel …

I made three notecards using the Altenew Be Strong stamp and die set focusing on those cute little cactus and the light strings and using up scraps of card and patterned paper.

Whilst this first one is slightly more traditional with the stamping on white and colouring with the stampin blends to create both the focal images and then the plain panel I created in the background of the string lights…
… I also stamped and coloured the images on the coloured cardstock too which I used for cards two and three.

The base colour changes the colouring of the alcohol blends but still looks fabulous and you can still get variation in the colouring to give the impression of depth/shape.

I added different pieces of scrap patterned paper to each card along with other pieces of leftover cardstock from other projects.

Love how cute they all are.
Really love in particular though the first one with that sentiment cluster and the bigger panel of the stamped background.

Wish the stamping on the sentiment was a little cleaner but sometimes these things happen!
Happy crafting!
