Calling All Stampers!
No matter your style, no matter your medium, no matter your skill level, it’s time to submit to the next issue of Stamp It! Cards. With more stamps on the market than ever before we just can’t wait to see your fresh, innovative, and creative stamped cards for all occasions and holidays!
Though all techniques are welcome, we’ll be highlighting four specific ones in this issue. We’re dying to see your creative approaches to these hot techniques:
Stamp kissing
Adding color with markers
Creating patterned paper with stamps
Adding color with dye ink sprays
And while you’re at it, how ‘bout entering our Cover Contest? That’s right! Three of the strongest cards will be selected to adorn the cover of our magazine—and we’d just love one of them to be yours! The winners will each receive a copy of our latest and greatest book, Paper Crafts Gourmet. So grab your favorite stamps, ink up your pads, position your stamping mat, and grip your heat gun, because the best issue of Stamp It! Cards yet is completely within your grasp! (Cover girls will be notified by no later than Friday, November 14.)
