Clear Calendars and Gift Card Holders - Kitchen Sink Stamps POM

Happy Wednesday! I'm happy to share with you my creations for Kitchen Sink Stamps October Project of the Month. My projects use a variety of Kitchen Sink Stamps, Memento Inks and the Clear Business Card and Calendar Cases now carried at Kitchen Sink Stamps. Just a reminder, when ordering at Kitchen Sink Stamps you can save 10% on your orders when you use code LISA10KSS. Happy Savings!

I just love the Business Card size case - it's perfect for Gift Cards! On this case, I used the Multi Step Sunflowers and Vintage Words. Can't you just see these done up for Holidays, Baby Showers or Birthdays!



I stamped the Multi Step Sunflowers as follows:

  • Stem: #3 Memento Cottage Ivy, #1 Memento Cottage Ivy – stamp off, #4 Imperial Purple, #2 Memento Cottage Ivy, #1 Memento Cottage Ivy – stamp off, #3 Imperial Purple
  • Sunflowers: #3 Memento Desert Sand, #2 Memento Dandelion, #1 Memento Dandelion, #5 Imperial Purple, #4 Memento Potters Clay.
  • Lady Bug: #1 Memento Rhubarb – stamp off, #2 Memento Rhubarb, #3 Imperial Purple

Below I've used the Multi Step Trees, Multi Step Pumpkins and Multi Step Owl &Autumn Moon to create a few calendar pages













I Stamped the Multi Step Trees as follows:
  • #1 Memento Rose Red stamped off, #2 Memento Rose Red, #3 Memento Cocoa. Branch: #1 Memento Cocoa, #2 Memento Cocoa, #3 Memento Cocoa.
To create the grass hill, I simply tore a piece of copy paper, placed it over my stamped image, and then sponged on Mellow Moss Ink.
