Tuesday Tip/Technique

Hello friends

It's Tuesday Tip/Technique.  As with most weeks this might be a new tip/technique

for you or a reminder of what you can do with your Spellbinders dies.

Today's project uses A2 Fancy Postage Stamps.

I've cut/embossed the edged rectangle and left the die cut in place in the die.

I applied a little distress ink around the edges first - Antique Linen.

 Still keeping the die cut in the die, stamp the complete area. I've used a script stamp.

 You can see it has stamped onto the outer edges of the die - no problem,

a quick wipe and it comes off easily.

 And this is how it looks when the die cut is removed from the die -

selective shading and stamping, you get the nice crisp edge.

 I chose to use it on a tag along with Jewel Flowers and Flourishes and Foliage.

The other die cuts are all from the A2 Fancy Postage Stamps set.

Have fun die cutting, inking and stamping! :)
Take care friends, I'm back tomorrow.
