Make it Monday #3! (Video!)

Happy 4th of July!  I am about to head off to photograph some events for my day job, but I couldn't leave without posting a Make it Monday!


This week there will be a little more structure on the blog than most weeks.  I will be featuring one of the cupcake stamps from the Hero Arts set Happy Birthday Cupcakes today through Thursday.

The goal of this week is to showcase the different looks that you can get with just one stamp.  I will be using the stamp with the giant red arrow pointing to it. :-)
I hope this will be especially helpful to those who are just starting out and don't have a large stamp collection or helpful to those who need inspiration for stamps that haven't seen ink in a while.



Today's card is a clean and simple paper pieced look.  I ended up using two stamps from the set and some Basic Grey cardstock letters. 




Check out the video below to see the entire process.  


If you have the cupcake stamp, or ANY stamp, try using only that stamp for a week.  You may come up with ideas or new ways to use it that you never knew were possible!  If you do this, please leave a comment with a link to your blog.  I love to check out everyone's work.

Stop back tomorrow for more cupcake fun!


Supplies: 
Stamps —   Hero Arts Happy Birthday Cupcakes
Inks — Memento (Tuxedo Black), Distress Ink (Antique Linen)
Papers — Basic Grey Euphoria Collection, Neenah Solar White Cardstock
Other — Cardstock letters from Basic Grey Euphoria Collection
