Designer Tips: . The jumbo stamps look great going off a card, as a background or as a focal. The large words are perfect centered on the front of the card. . Embossing the greeting on the front with amethyst embossing powder adds a rich finish and texture to the words. . Spraying on the stamp gets messy, so it's best to do it outside and/or wear gloves-Glimmer Mist can stay on your skin for a while.

Supplies:

• Thinking of You Jumbo Stamp
• Jumbo Stamp Clear Handle
• Dragonfly Glimmer Mist
• VersaMark Watermark Stamp Pad
• Amethyst Embossing Powder
• Ocean Fluid Chalk Ink Pad
• Ocean Fluid Chalk Ink Pad
• Leaf Blender Stylus Tips
• White Cards & Envelopes

Instructions:

1. Place the card so the fold is on the left. Place the medallion stamp on the clear block and spray it with Dragonfly Glimmer mist. Stamp on the card several times, spraying the stamp between each stamping. Spray the card lightly with the Glimmer mist. The card will curl from the moisture, so place a paper towel over it and weigh it down with some heavy books until it dries completely.
2. Stamp "Thinking of you" on the center of the card with Versamark. Sprinkle on amethyst embossing powder and shake off excess. Emboss with a heat embossing tool. Stamp the medallion stamp with Blackberry in the top left and bottom right corner as shown.
3. For the inside: Stamp a medallion with Blackberry ink in the center. Use the stylus and a blender tip to apply Ocean ink to the center of the medallion, applying it heavier in the center and softer around the edges. Write a greeting above the medallion with a pen.
