Anyone here use stamps in their scrapbooks?

[ChrisnSteph]

I'm a demonstrator for a stamp/scrap company, and I'd love to share ideas on how to incorporate stamping into scrapbooks. Has anyone done Disney pages using stamps? I'd love to see them!

[TPCShauna]

I use tons of ink but I don't use stamps. If I do, I stamp something else and then put that on my page as a matted element. Honestly, I don't love stamps so I tend not to use them very much.

I know there are some stampers here so hopefully someone has something to share. Good luck!

What she said - stamp something else and cut it out. I use them more for cards. Well, I use them fo collecting mostly :rolleyes:

I am relatively new to scrapbooking and am starting to try and incoporate different elements into my pages. I just bought my first stamp ( a little pirate ship) and used gold embossing powder for my pirate page. Watching the embossing powder 'come to life':laughing: with the heat tool is very addicting!
I plan on using more stamps in the future (found a cute set of lantern stamps for my Tea Cups page, a music note for Philharmagic and an AFRICA on for AK)

I have done some stamping on my scrapbook pages. Mostly I stamp on something and then put it on the page. I have no idea to post a picture or I would. I haven't stamped anything Disney. I have just started getting into stamping, so I am still pretty new at it.

I need a heat-it tool - using a hairdryer was not a success :lmao:

[happycampers]

The pirate ship pages are really neat!
Most of the time, when I use stamps it's words for titles, words on tags, etc.
I have used a soccer ball for a border and the "o" in the word "soccer". That's all I can think of right now. I use the Cricut so much anymore. Most of my stamping is on cards.

I heard that if you're careful, a toaster can work well as it's a radiant heat source and doesn't blow air around like a hairdryer. Just hold the iem over the toaster when it's switched on and keep moving the item around so it doesn't burn.

Wow! I love these pages. :-) Thanks for sharing.

I was a stamper before I was a scrapper so I have quite the collection. If I could only get my desk cleaned up I'd be more inclined to use my stamps with my scrapping. :lmao:

WOW!! That looks awesome!

[ChrisnSteph]

Most of the stamping in my books are alphabets, word stamps and backgrounds, with the occasional flower or something. I haven't done the embossing in my books yet - I'm too lazy for that!

[PoohBearLovinMama]

I love those Pirate ships. What a cute, cute page!

I use stamps a lot in my scrapbooking. I make titles (sometimes I stamp on something else, other times I just stamp right onto my page,) I have lot's of scrolly/flourishy type stamps that i decorate the corners of the page, I use some for journaling spots, I've even made my own patterned paper with some. I'll see about posting a pic!

[PoohBearLovinMama]

Ack, sorry it's so giant. I've resized and it's just not coorperating with me.

Anyway, I stamped w/white ink onto the black cs and then the black scrolly things onto the white paper.

That is a DARLING page! I really love the large corner stamp and the lovely scrolly stamps on the white paper. :thumbsup2

[PoohBearLovinMama]

Thank you! Dd#1 actually took that picture of my kitty and I thought it was pretty cute.

[LindaBabe]

The pirate and kitty pages are so darn cute - they make me want to try stamping - it just seems like every time I do, I make such a MESS of it - all over me - the project - the table - the kitchen - you get the idea.

[TPCShauna]

That's how I feel about embossing. I LOVE the look but I make a HUGE mess.

[Faerie]

I got the perfect mat for stamping! It's by Ranger and wipes clean in seconds!

Thank you! And yes, I too made quite a mess...I also made my first shaker box today so my workspace it officially covered with gold dust and little beads...:headache:

Here's a small page I recently did with minimal stamping (just the words and month). I just realized it's the same pic that's in my siggy, lol:

Where did you find your 8x8 calendar template? I've looked everywhere and can't find one.

BTW, your page is beautiful. That is a lovely photo.

It's actually 6x6. I love that size because you can get four pages out of one 12x12 sheet of cardstock. I'm cheap like that, lol! Anyway, the calendar is from Stampin' Up.

[TPCShauna]

Do they sell an 8x8?

[ChrisnSteph]

No, just 6x6 and 12x12. Try Oriental Trading, scrapbooks.com or thescrapqueen.com. All three have 8x8 calendars. :)
