Tomorrow is stamp camp and we are stamping cards for every age group. The new baby card we will create is my posting for today. My tip for the week: Use a Stampin' Dimensional on every other image when you have a row of images to add interest!
The ducks and teddy bears here are adhered across the card front, however, a Stampin' Dimensional pops up every other image. Fun! The message is also layered onto Stampin' Dimensionals.
NOTES:
cs: Peach Parfait, Pear Pizzazz, So Saffronother paper: Pear Pizzazz Patterns DSP, watercolor paper
ink: Black Stazon inkpad; Stampin' Write markers - So Saffron, Pear Pizzazz, Peach Parfait, Creamy Caramel (retired), Soft Suede
punches: 1" circle, Decorative Label
other: Stampin' Dimensionals
How I created the layered tag: So Saffron cs strip is 1 5/16" wide. Pear Pizzazz dsp strip is 1 3/8" wide. I stamped the message onto the So Saffron strip, centered the message & punched one end at a time with the Decorative Label punch. The trick to punching a longer message with a punch that isn't quite long enough is to insert the paper from the bottom of the punch through the center. I was using the Modern Label punch today & thought some photos of this technique would be helpful for you. The Decorative Label punching that I did for today's card followed the same technique as used with the Modern label punch. After both ends are punched separately, I adhered the message onto the Pear Pizzazz dsp mat & punched both ends again. Adjust both ends to allow for a thin or thick outer mat style.

I guess I've given you two Tuesday tips today! Why not give both this "long tag layering" AND "adding dimensionals to every other image" a try!
