Larger Than Life Letters and Numbers

I earned a free stamp set at Convention 2014 and chose the Larger Than Life Numbers and Letters:

Stamps: Larger Than Life Letters and Numbers, Gorgeous Grunge
Color Palette: Island Indigo, Very Vanilla
Accessories: Typeset Specialty DSP, Honeycomb TIEF, Starburst Framelits, Island Indigo Chevron Ribbon, Handheld Stapler (Holiday 2014 Sneak Peak)

The honeycomb pattern is created by inking the raised side of the TIEF and pressing the paper into it – VERY easy with a big WOW factor. I added a little sploosh of Gorgeous Grunge on this one as I didn’t press as hard on the TIEF.

I’m a big fan of monograms, although I know they’re somewhat outdated. And boy oh boy, am I a fan of the new Handheld Stapler! It dispenses short little staples – oh so cute!

This is the same concept but without the Grungification…I like it grungified better.

My most faithful customers got a little something extra this month:

I’ve had the Decorative Masks (Hearts & Stars #133777, Dots and Stripes #133775) for a while and I’ve had this project in mind even longer! It was very easy to do and I’m pleased with the results.

The masks are quite inexpensive – $2.95! – and they’re very easy to work with. I used blue painter’s tape to hold them in place, and daubers to apply the ink straight from the ink pad. My bags were bigger than the masks and I found it very easy to line up the images in order to work across the full width of the bags.

I stamped the initials with the Larger Than Life Letters and Numbers (#135382) and layered them onto a coordinating Starburst Framelit (#1329670). A little bit of coordinating ribbon finished it off.

We have an ordinance in Maui County prohibiting the use of lightweight plastic bags, so these re-usable canvas bags are just the thing for catalogs, supplies and (of course) new product! Shop HERE to make your own – it takes less than 20 minutes!
