Tuesday Tip – For the new stamp packaging, take the”flimsy” piece of plastic off the stamp sheet, ink all of the stamps and stamp them on a piece of Basic White.
Adhere this to the inside back of the folder. You can see where each stamp is on the sheet and which one is missing!
Do you have a stamping tip to share?

Thank you for stopping by on our September Paper Crafting Blog Hop with Independent Stampin’ Up! demonstrators from all over the world, featuring products from the new Mini-Catalog. Here is a sneak peek of my card. Below my full card picture is a list of links to all of this month’s participating bloggers.
I love Autumn, so I picked up the brand new Amber Autumn Bundle (#165893) to create this card! Both the stamps and dies in this bundle are fabulous!! The card base is Cajun Craze with a layer of Cajun Craze die cut with the background leaf die. It is gorgeous on its own.
I used the Traditional Labels Dies (#165864 ) to cut a label in Basic White to anchor my stamped pumpkin cluster. After cutting the label, I stamped off the acorn cluster in Pecan Pie before stamping on the label. The sentiment was stamped in Cajun Craze. Next, I colored the pumpkins, gourd, leafs and grasses with Stampin’ Blends. Stampin’ Up! artists create the most amazing stamp images for us!
Thanks for hopping with us this month. Next go to –> Tracy’s blog to see what she has created.
