Using Tiny Doggy Stamps | CraftyPaws

You know those tiny stamps in a stamp set that often go unnoticed or unused? Well, I took up the MFT Background Challenge and decided to gather some of my favorite dog-themed stamp sets and use only the tiny stamps to create a fun CAS card.

I used stamps from MFT “You Make My Tail Wag,” MFT “You Have My Heart,” Gerda Steiner Designs “Howl Are You?” and Lawn Fawn’s “Critters in the Dog Park.” I positioned them around on my MISTI (after all if I messed up a stamp I needed to be able to repeat the stamping) and used MFT Black Licorice Hybrid Ink.

20160719_181233Then I used the following Copic colors to color up the images:
Fire hydrant: R22, 05, 29
Purple bone: V12, 15, 17
Sausage: E04 and 07
Dog bowl: B12, 14, 18
Orange bone: YE00
Tennis ball: Y11 and 15
Green newspaper: YT03 and 09
Fetch stick: E84 and 87
Yes, there are a lot of colors (in fact, all the colors of the rainbow and more!); I wanted to make this card bright and cheerful. Plus I figured I could use any colors I wanted since the images could be dog squeeky or plush toys (rather than real bones for example).

Then to make the sentiment banner, I used VersaMark ink and Recollections Snow Pearl Embossing Powder on black card stock to stamp out and heat emboss “You’re Pawsitively Awesome.” I popped that up on double sided foam adhesive to add a little dimension and flanked it with two black enamel dots.

The card was still “missing something” so I decided to make a little striping for the bottom edge to give it a little visual weight. I used a black and white striped washi tape on white card stock and glued that to the edge. To create a clean edge, I also cut a thin trip of black card stock and glued that to the top edge of the washi strip.

Lastly, I added some doodled dots with a sparkly Sakura Clear Star Gelly Roll Pen around each of the stamped images. That seemed to finish the card off nicely!
