Anything Goes Saturday – snowman postage idea
Hello everyone – I played with a stencil to create the Anything Goes Saturday – snowman postage idea.
Vicky and I use Saturday to share ideas with you using anything we have in our stash. Make sure you check out her project here.
I used a postage die and stencil set from 2 different companies to make today’s card. Check out how I made it work.
Today’s Project
I saw the snowman stencil and postage stamp set and purchased both on Black Friday. I played with both on today’s card.
I learned that you have to do some creative lining up of your stencil if it is from a different company than the die. Some of the images had the bottom cut off to make them work.
Some of the stencil images were narrower than the space on the die. To help fill the space, I used some of the snowflake stamps from the stamp set.
