Today, Wendy, owner of Repeat Impressions is letting me do the Pick of the Week - this one is not so much of a technique but a way to get more use of your favorite stamps.

Confession — a lot of my cards are made for my grandchildren — who can’t yet read. I use my stamps so that it is easy for them to identify a card for them in all the mail that comes to their house. The following is a long list (in order of use) - but it took me less than 10 minutes to stamp all these!

Stamps used:
904-L, Daffodils
5136-C, Small Cat Silhouette
6807-J, Cherub Flourish
4903-F, Love Post
1210-K, Tumbling Hearts
2620-K, Jester Banner
810-C, Heart, Moon & Stars
1222-G, Love Stencil
4317-E, Birdhouse
911-F, Balloon
2615-K, Cat Banner
10402-O, Rectangle Marquee Frame

First I’ll start with the fancy one - I used the Daffodils stamp and embossed it in gold. First one plain, second colored with copics. If you decide to use copics - be sure to insert a scratch piece of paper while coloring - copics will go thru the envelope.

This second group was fun to stamp - because they were so quick!

Be sure to check out all the Banners - there are a good many scattered throughout the Repeat Impressions online catalogue.

Hope you start using your stamps on your envelopes and having as much fun as I did. Thanks for looking at my project.
