Tip of the Week Buffalo Check with Stamparatus!

This week I’m focusing on the Buffalo Check Stamp which is a really great background stamp. I recommend you get the Clear Mount and use it with the Stamparatus.

My Tip is to put some washi tape where the edge of the cardstock would lay so you can keep its placement on the Stamparatus. See how I have it stuck on along the edge of the Pool Party Cardstock?

Ink up the stamp. I like to put the stamp case under the plate to help keep it flat when inking it up.

Flip the plate to stamp. Re-ink again and again if needed to get good coverage.

This works really well and helps you get the coverage you need.

Here are a couple of Christmas Cards I made with the Buffalo Check Stamp. Don’t you love how this plaid background looks on these cards?

This card has a Whisper White layer with the Buffalo Check stamped in Shaded Spruce. The Merry Christmas sentiment is stamped in Real Red and is from the Merry Christmas To All Stamp Set. A couple of Red Rhinestones just give a little bling to the card.

This card has a Cherry Cobble card base and a strip of Cherry Cobbler with Early Espresso stamped on it using the Buffalo Check Stamp. The sentiment and floral image was stamped in Mossy Meadow and the Deer is in Cherry Cobbler. These all came from the Dashing Deer Stamp Set. I cut out a couple of flowers from the coordinating dies and colored a couple of clear rhinestones with a Cherry Cobbler Dark Stampin’ Blend.
