How to Create a Stamped Collage Style Card

 Greetings!  Chris here and today I am excited to share this stamped collage style greeting card. 

This card features several of my favorite Blank Page Muse and I Brake for Stamps stamp sets. 

Stamps featured:

Blank Page Muse Ginkgo Leaf Maidenhair Art Rubber Stamp

Blank Page Muse Single Dandelion Blowing in the Wind Rubber Stamp by Terri Sproul

I Brake for Stamps Florals Sheet Flowers for you Bouquet Happy Birthday Thank you

I Brake for Stamps Zebra Butterfly Collage

Start by stamping your stamps repeatedly onto s script printed paper. 

I used a postage stamp punch to punch out my stamped images. 

Mat your punched stamped images onto cardstock or colored patterned paper so that they are slightly offset. 

Place your stamped images onto a piece of matted script paper and adhere to your card base. 

Finish off your card with a die cut hello added to a punched script paper postage stamp, and a jute bow. 

I hope you are inspired to get creative with your stamps and papers from Blank Page Muse and I Brake For Stamps.  Don't forget to use my discount code BPMChris.

How to Create a Stamped Mixed Media Canvas

 Greetings!   Today I am excited to share this mixed media canvas I created using some of my favorite Blank Page Muse stamps! These stamps have been my GO TO stamps for many projects! 

 

This Canvas Features

Blank Page Muse Vintage Mannequin Dress Form Lace Fan Butterfly Pattern Tags Rubber Stamp Set

Blank Page Muse Tape Measure Piece Art Rubber Stamp

Blank Page Muse Classic Spark Rubber Stamp set

Blank Page Muse Brick Wall Section Art Rubber Stamp by Terri Sproul

Blank Page Muse Sequin Waste Light Art Rubber Stamp by Terri Sproul

Blank Page Muse Butterfly Stamp ( No longer available) 

Start by stamping your images onto your canvas. I started with my diamond background stamps from the Blank Page Muse Classic Spark Rubber Stamp set. I was a little light on my inking and so my stamp didn't transfer completely.  But I wasn't worried because I was going to layer additional stamps. 

Layer the Blank Page Muse Brick Wall Section Art Rubber Stamp by Terri Sproul over your canvas. 

Fill in the background of your canvas with Blank Page Muse Sequin Waste Light Art Rubber Stamp by Terri Sproul and the Blank Page Muse Tape Measure Piece Art Rubber Stamp. 

Blend distress inks over your canvas in your desired colors. 

Stamp your Blank Page Muse Vintage Mannequin Dress Form Lace Fan Butterfly Pattern Tags Rubber Stamp Set onto card stock and fussy cut.  Blend ink over your stamped image. 

the wings were made with paper clay and a mold.  Once dry I added some pigment rubs onto the wings . 

Add your cut body and wings to your stamped canvas. Finish off your canvas with a chipboard quote or saying. 

I hope you are inspired to get creative with your stamps and papers from Blank Page Muse and I Brake For Stamps.  Don't forget to use my discount code BPMChris.

Beware the Bird Man

Hey there, friends!

It’s design team member Walter on the BPM blog today with a fun take on a Halloween card.  This card allowed me to combine my love for vintage looking cards with a stamp that was begging for a story to be told.  I had so much fun with this one!  Beware the Bird Man is a cautionary tale based on some imaginary local lore (or is it imaginary?)

I used the following BPM stamps in making it:

• Vintage Style Hybrid Mystical Character Bird Man Art Rubber Stamp
  
• BEWARE Word Art Rubber Stamp
  
• Faded Page Text Words Rubber Stamp by Terri Sproul
  

Each of these stamps combined to create a vintage looking book page and image.

Visit my blog for more details on the card and to read the story I wrote that was inspired by the Bird Man!

I hope that you all have a safe and happy All Hallow’s Eve.  Thanks for spending some time with me on the blog today.  See you next time!

Bright Vintage Tags!

 Hi again!

My second post for this month - can you believe we're nearly half way through the year - time flies!

Today I was inspired by some tags I saw on Instagram by @paperiliitin

I loved the bright coloured backgrounds along with the little vintage people which I have so I decided to create some myself using bits & pieces sitting around on my desk!

Backgrounds are painted and stamped and ephemera and main image layered and adhered to tag front.

Rosy Thank You Card

 Hello from design team member, Heidi.  Today I have a pretty thank you card to share.  I like to have a lot of these around because I tend to need a lot at once.

I stamped and colored two of the Rose images and colored them in.  This is such a detailed stamp that it was very easy to color.  I fussy cut them out.

I, then, stamped the Thank You onto some patterned paper.  I also cut an oval window out of white cardstock and embossed it.  

After this all there was left is to assemble the card by using a bit of bright pink cardstock for a mat.  I thought about adding glitter, but in the end left it alone.

The stamps I used are both in the Blank Page Muse shop:

Creating an Art Journal in 2022 - A Creative Start

Today I am excited to share the start of my 2022 Art Journal!  Art journaling was something I played around with in 2021 and loved the freedom it gave me to just create! To try new techniques. To try new stamps, new textures and USE my papers and scraps! 

I know that I will not love all my creations and some won't even ever be seen!  But this is by me and for me so that's ok!   No Rules! No Limits (except for paper size!

  

For this year's journal, I choose a travel journal I had picked up off of amazon that I loved and had hope to use as a scrapbook of sorts but felt the pages were too thin. But I couldn't let it go to waste so it will be my Art Journal!  And I love the size.  Roughly 4 1/8  x 6 3/4 inches.  Big enough to get creative but not so big that it would get overwhelming. You Can find the exact journal on Amazon  if you want to try the same one, but any 3 to 6 ring binder will do! and in Any size.

Other Supplies
