The Stampwheel 2.0 builds on the success of the original Stampwheel with notable upgrades, including a larger workspace with a detachable side, precision inch scales, and a high-quality photopolymer Sticky Mat. This innovative tool retains the original feature of a rotational clear plate that locks into place at 16 equal intervals. The Sticky Mat, made from high-quality photopolymer, ensures that your paper and stencils stay securely in place. Additionally, the right side of the Stampwheel 2.0 frame is detachable to accommodate larger stamps, stencils, or paper. Both sides of the frame feature an inch scale for easier alignment.

For today’s blog hop, I wanted to create something on A4 paper to see how easy it is to use the removable side frame and adjust the workspace for larger papers and stamps.

I started with white A4 cardstock and stamped a smaller flower image from the Billowing Peonies stamp set using Obsidian Pigment Ink. Next, I used a masking technique to cover the peonies and stamped floral sprig images from the Dainty Bouquet stamp set.

I used the coordinating Billowing Peonies Layering Stencil Set and applied the following ink shades to add colour to the flowers and leaves: Rose Quartz, Puffy Heart and Purple Wine from Rose Petal Fresh Dye Ink Set, Pastel Sunrise and Canyon Clay from Martian Terrain Fresh Dye Ink Set, along with Misty Sage, Mossy Meadow and Green Opal from Jade Dreams Fresh Dye Ink Set.

To finish the design I added some green ink splatters.

 

I'm still not sure if I want to trim it and make some cards, so for now, I used a pink paperclip to hang it on my inspiration board. Would you cut it and make cards, or leave it as wall decor?

That’s it for me! Your next stop is Carol Hintermeier and you can find the full line up below.

For today’s blog hop I created a Christmas card featuring Intertwining Leaves Layering Die Set from the November 2024 Release collection.

I started by die-cutting all the elements needed to create a leafy wreath. I used a smaller branch and die-cut all the layers from Reindeer Moss, Forest Fern, and Misty Morning cardstock. I also used 4 simple, one-layer branches die-cut out of Misty Morning cardstock.

Next, I created my background by attaching a panel of Dark Night cardstock to a card base and adding splashes of Titanium White Artists' Gouache for a wintry feel. I arranged my die cuts in the shape of a wreath and added Mother of Pearl Gem Sparkles for extra shine and elegance.

My last step was to add a sentiment from the Modern Poinsettia Stamp Set.

That’s it for me, your next stop is Carol Hintermeler.
