Stamps, Ink & Paper!

By | | Cards
Leave a comment

SIP – or Stamps, Ink & Paper.  It's the basic list of what you need to make a handmade card!  When I was a brand-new stamper, card-maker & Stampin' Up! Demonstrator, I made this card below.  I didn't have many tools or accessories yet… just the stamps, ink & paper that came in my demonstrator starter kit!  I didn't even use Stampin' Dimensionals on this card! GASP!

GreetingsGalore-TY-10.06
Keeping in mind that nearly everything I used for this card (except Blender Pens, Whisper White card stock & Basic Black ink) is now retired Stampin' Up! product, here is the "ingredient" list:

Card stock: YoYo Yellow, Green Galore, Gable Green, Whisper White

Stamp Set: Greetings Galore

Ink: Basic Black, YoYo Yellow, Green Galore

Tools & Accessories: Blender Pen, my fingers for tearing!

I hope you enjoy this card project! It brought a smile to my face when I found this card in my stash. My stamping and card-making have come a LONG way in the last 5+ years.  Everyone starts somewhere… let me help YOU get started.  It's so much FUN!

Contact me and I'll help you find the right combination of Stamps, Ink & Paper!

Happy Crafting,
