Make Your Own Magic

Hi and welcome, everyone! Lisa from The Relativity of Paper sharing a sneak peek of three of the four new Mini Stamps Sets: Camping Friends, Feathered Friends, In The Wild, and Rockin’ Reptilian. I’ve used three of these sets to create a little sneak peek magic for you.

At the beginning of the summer, Craftin Desert Divas released an adorable stamp set for boys, Adventure Awaits. With three fun images of boys having extraordinary adventures: a wizard, a pirate, and an astronaut. When you take fun stamps like that and add these fantastic minis, you can create some unique cards. My theme for this card is Harry Potter. The owl represents Hedwig, the snake a couple of things; a Parselmouth and the Basilisk, and the deer represents Harry’s Patronus.

4.25″x 5.5″ card base – 8.5″ x 11″ #110 cardstock scored at 5.5″ and cut at 4.25″ to create to top fold card bases
