Rooty-Tooty Fresh & Fruity! Tomorrow- Thursday, January 4th- the January-April Mini Catalog goes live AND 2024 Sale-a-Bration begins!

I admired the “Blueberry Bunches” stamp set (item #162692) the moment I saw it: It feels like a floral, but it’s a fruit, and that’s kinda my “jam” (see what I did there?).

I’ve paired the stamps with the Perennial Postage bundle (Item #162608) for the sentiment and postage stamp die (in various sizes).

This is the second largest die and after I cut a piece of basic white, I stamped the blueberries in the center, then used Masking Paper around the edges so I could blend Pool Party ink from the outside into the image- a technique called “Reverse Masking”. As you carefully peel off the masking paper, the background appears as a frame!

Once I colored the image with Stampin’ Blends alcohol markers, I “cancelled” the postage stamp with the cutest little detail of the cancellation mark, which I dipped into Memento Tuxedo black ink before running through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss machine on top of my colored postage stamp.

Seemed fitting to share it with the #tgifc453 postal theme this week.

I’ll update the supply list once the catalog goes live, and hope you’ll try this technique and mail bunches of happy mail.
