Hey there, it's Caryn here today sharing a card using some new products from the fall 2021 release as well as a couple of older ones!
I've been having so much fun designing and using the layered stamp sets we have at Avery Elle. Today I'm showcasing 2 of them - the Layered Holiday Truck and the Layered Pine stamp sets.
A few tips I often use when creating with these sets is to use the MISTI and load all the layers of the image onto one platform. This helps to stamp several images at a time. For example, the Layered Pine set consists of two images so I put them into my stamping platform and make sure to use the exact same size piece of card each time. You can use a square or rectangular die to be extra precise! In this case I cut squares of 9mm length.
To help line up the second layer of the stamp I sometimes use the printed carrier sheet that the stamps live on. This can really help if the images are a bit more difficult to see through.
I used the same techniques when stamping the truck and the trees It can take a bit of trial and error but once you have everything lined up you should get great results.
Once I stamped all images I die cut the Snow Scene Elle-ments in white and blended some aqua blue ink over the top half of it. I used the wavy banner from the Easy Layers 1 Elle-ments and stamped the sentiments from the Layered Holiday Truck set onto them.
Here's a wee tip when you want a curved sentiment but the stamp is straight. Die cut the piece you want to stamp onto. The flip it over so the front side is facing down and put a clear stamping block on top of it. Curve your sentiment to the shape you want it to stamp onto then turn the die cut back over and ink up your stamp and it will be lined up to the shape of the die cut!
I made the wee Happy Holidays flag from the same wavy banner die but snipped it in half and added a slither of card for the the stick!
