Marble Swirl Stamp Set Card

When I saw this Marble Swirl design, I knew I had to have this stamp set.  I love the way it is actually 3 stamps to create the swirl effect, that each stamp can also be used individually (on its own).  I ordered directly from Catherine Pooler's website.   They shipped quickly.

PROS:  Unique Design, 3 swirled images, 3 sentiments, 1 sentiment block,
CONS:  Photopolymer stamp set (smells)

First, I want to say that I LOVE red rubber stamps and that they are my stamp type of choice.   I rarely buy acrylic or photopolymer.   One of the reasons I try to stay away from photopolymer is that there is an odor to it, and sometimes it is pretty intense.    When I opened this stamp set, the odor was awful.  I ended up setting it outside overnight to air it out.   That really helped, but even now 3 days later, the stamp set still smells.   I have left it open/completely exposed in my craft room to air it out even more.   If you or someone in your family is scent sensitive, this might be a stamp set to avoid.


Here is the card I made with this stamp set.   I used FSJ Turbo Teal, Watermelon Fusion, and Lavender Fusion for the swirls and overlapped the colors in some areas.

I'm looking forward to trying other colors, designs, and layouts with this stamp set.   The sky is the limit.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today.

Today I am sharing a step by step tutorial showcasing Fun Stampers Journey Pan Pastels over an embossed background.    The background was created with FSJ embossing folders.

Here is the direct link to the video:  https://youtu.be/tdPRDE-J6zM





Here are photo of the completed cards from the video.   Tomorrow I will share an additional one I made for Halloween with this technique.

The cards could be used as Thank You cards or even for Thanksgiving.   The background technique could be used with any embossing folder.   I used whip cream card stock (FSJ), but try it on different colors to see how it changes the look.

Reminder that all solid color card stock and coordinating ink pads are on sale this month for 20% off through my Fun Stampers Journey website.
