Artist Trading Card Daily – 64

March 5, 2015April 6, 2015 John - Gentleman Crafter9 Comments

I have been reflecting on life a lot recently and have come to the conclusion that I should be grateful for a lot of things. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not been an easy ride; I’ve had my fair share of rubbish bits but just recently I am trying to make the choice to look at the positives and be appreciative of what I have so I wanted to sum this up in one of these ATC makes.

After a little rummage through my stash I think that I found the perfect set of sentiments. It was the “Friendly Advice” clear stamp set from Inkadinkado.

You may have recently seen in my post about UFOs that I had made a start with an idea that I had a while back about using the Inkadinkado Stamping Gear together with Parchment Craft.

This post will hopefully give you Inkadinkadoodlers another idea for using the system, and also help me clear another UFO.

A couple of weeks ago I decided to have a go at making dimensional flowers using the Inkadinkado Stamping Gear from EK Success Brands.

I was pleasantly surprised when I realised just how easy it was so I though that I’d write a little blog post on how I did it in case you would like to give it a go too.

Mini Makes With Inkadinkado Stamping Gear

So far I have been creating some quite sizable projects with the Inkadinkado Stamping Gear from EK Success however a lovely lady called Suzanne, from Australia, recently contacted me via my Facebook page and asked how she would go about creating smaller projects with the Inkadinkado Stamping Gear.

Through some experimentation I have discovered that size doesn’t matter and that you can work on projects all the way down to an Artist Trading Card (about 3.5 inches by 2.5 inches) so I thought I’d share some ideas with you all.
