Introducing the Frame By Frame Set:

• The Shady Designs Frame By Frame stamp set is an A5 clear stamp set with one main focal image, separate film cell, accessory images, background stamp & 3 sentiments which fit inside the banner.

• When I designed the Frame By Frame stamp set, I wanted it to make quick projects whether that be for cardmaking or journaling. It was also important it could be vintage, modern, playful - everything us creatives want without having to over think.
• To give everyone some of my thoughts behind the Shady Designs Frame By Frame stamp set, there is a co-ordinating workshop.

One stamp set, one idea but change the colour!

Taking the main focal image from Shady Designs Frame By Frame stamp set, I wanted to create a quick card idea by show by changing the background colour, you can create softer or more dramatic looks. 

Idea #1

Materials:

Shady Designs Frame By Frame stamp set

Shady Designs Film Strip stencil

Shady Designs Numbers stencil

Using Shady Designs Film Strip & Numbers stencils, I made a soft layered background. Next using Versafine Clair Morning Mist, I stamped the image on to the background. On a separate piece of card, I re-stamped the image in the same ink colour, coloured the flowers & cutting it out once dry. I also stamped the banner & a sentiment too. This I layered up with 3D foam on to my background.

As a finishing touch, I stamped the diamond background stamp in Versafine Clair Baby Pink & Nocturne cutting away the diamond elements. Yes this could seem "faffy" but I thought they made the perfect embellishments.

Idea #2

Materials:

This card design was made in exactly the same way as idea #1 but I choose to use Frayed Burlap oxide ink. Rather than using the background stamp as embellishments, I have stamped in different places and used glossy accents to highlight one or two.

Idea #3

Materials:

Shady Designs Make A Start Card Kit

For this card, I have used a pre-designed background (Shady Designs Make A Start Card Kit) and stamped the main image in Versafine Clair Nocturne twice this time. I coloured the images this time directly on the backing - creates wonderful dark & light areas.

On a separate piece of card, I stamped out the part with the tulip images, coloured as the background ones & cut them out. These were then layered on top with 3D foam.

Conclusion

Isn't it amazing how very quickly you can create different feeling to your cards with the Shady Designs Frame By Frame stamp set just by changing the colour? In brief, one stamp set has given the ability to do this with minimal stamping needed!

Other colour combinations which would strike an equal dramatic feel are: monochrome, rainbow, vintage.
