Nathalie used beautiful floral stamps for an elegant stamped layout, pulling shades from the photos for the flower colors. She also added a stenciled background, pretty frames and a hidden pull out card for journaling. Learn more at the Altenew blog.
As well as a scrapbooker I’m also a stamper (and the editor of our card making blog) and love making cards using stamps and sometimes I enjoy combining those two loves to add some stamped elements onto my scrapbook layouts. One of the best things about stamping is being able to customize the design with the colors you chose so let’s say you have a pattern paper you want to use but no embellishments to match you can stamp and color in with coordinating colors. You can include large stamped images for a focal point of the page, create subtle backgrounds with stamping, use alphabet stamps to make custom titles and numbers for dates. Today let’s dive into some amazing layouts that include some stamping.
