Tart and Tangy - Another Favorite Stamp Set Of Mine

Images © 1990-2009 Stampin' Up!

Yesterday's post featured one of my favorite stamp sets - Tart and Tangy and these cute note cards are made with the same stamp set. You only need a few simple supplies:

Markers - Red, Green and Orange instead of ink pads to color the images

Whisper White card stock - I cut mine to 2 3/4" x 2 3/4"

Bashful Blue card stock - my card base measured 6"x3" to make a 3x3 card base

The scallops were punched with the Circle Scallop Punch - I used red, green, orange and blue

I cut circle mats from coordinating card and stamped the images on whisper white

I chose the sentiment stamp set - Short and Sweet

Of course Stampin' Up! also sells 3x3 envelopes or love notes that include pre-cut cards and envelopes.

These were very quick to make and lots of fun.

Want to make the strawberry look like it is dipped in chocolate? Just stamp the strawberry image on chocolate chip card, cut it out and cut it in half with a wavy line and stick it on the bottom half of of the strawberry.

Want to make lemons and limes? Just use green or yellow on the citrus image.

Did you notice that we have new cherry images on our designer series paper in the new catalog? Wait 'till you see them in the flesh, they kind of have an embossed feel.

I'm posting now for tomorrow, as I still have a sick child at home - guess we're having ice cream for breakfast again tomorrow.
