The versatility of stamps and their popularity has grown at a phenomenal speed in the last couple of years. And although I have been stamping for years, the novelty is far from wearing off. I love stamps for their versatility, and it\u2019s safe for me to say that there is almost nothing you can\u2019t do with a stamp.<\/h3>\n

Love, Love, Love Layout<\/h2>\n

To include stamping into my layouts I use the stamps as a tool to add interesting elements to my layouts. Stamping and other embellishments should have a purpose, a meaning and not just randomly added because there is an empty space that needs filling. Select your stamps carefully to add texture, colour, pattern and decoration to your projects. Knowing your stamps and the additional tools to use with it is ninety percent of your success. If you use the wrong ink type to stamp on the wrong paper you will end up being disappointed and hate stamping. On the other hand if you use stamping effectively in your projects the more you will love and use it.<\/p>\n

On my layout I used a large background stamp from the BasicGrey Konnichiwa range. The lanterns are a generic design that can be used in a multitude of different ways and work with different themes. The background stamp is also amazing as a single element used on a quick card.<\/p>\n
