Stamping Platform

Instructions:
  1. Create a 5" x 7" card from textured black cardstock. Set aside.
  2. Use Tuxedo Black Memento Ink to stamp the rooster from the Crack Me Up Clear Stamp Set 1410 twice — once onto a panel of white Copic-friendly cardstock and once onto repositionable sticker paper. 
  3. Use the coffee mug die (not the Memory Dex die) from the Warm Hugs Die Set DI-102 to cut the image panel and a scrap of repositionable sticker paper. 
  4. Fussy-cut the oval coffee contents part of the coffee mug (outlined by dotted lines) sticker paper to create a mask. 
  5. Position the sticker paper mask on the image panel die-cut.
  6. Color the rooster with Copic markers. 
  7. Fussy-cut the sticker paper rooster and place him over his counterpart on the image panel die-cut.
  8. Brush or sponge Summer Sky Memento Ink over the image panel die-cut. 
  9. Use the same ink to edge the image panel die-cut. 
  10. Remove the mask from the rooster and the interior of the coffee mug. 
  11. Use Copic markers to color the mug's contents. 
  12. Use a white chalk pencil to add highlights to the coffee mug image panel die-cut, then set it aside.
  13. Cut a piece of mixed media paper to 6" x 6.75" to create the background panel.
  14. Use magnets to secure the background panel to a magnetic craft mat.
  15. Brush or sponge Confetti Elements Premium Dye Ink onto the bottom ~1.75" of the background panel. 
  16. Sponge Lemon Drop Elements Premium Dye Ink over the rest of the background panel, blending the inks where the colors meet.
  17. Use magnets or low-tack tape to secure the Radiant Rise 6x6 Stencil PC-257 to the top of the background panel. 
  18. Brush Sundance Elements Premium Dye Ink over the stencil onto the background panel to add a tone on tone effect.
  19. Trim the background panel to 4.75" x 6.75". 
  20. Use Nocturne VersaFine Clair Ink to edge the background panel.
  21. Add Inspire Washi Tape 2  horizontally across the bottom part of the background panel as shown. 
  22. Adhere the image panel die-cut to the background panel so that the base of the coffee mug is sitting on the washi tape. 
  23. Adhere the background panel to the reserved black 5" x 7" card. 
  24. Add a Snarky Small Talk Sticker sentiment to finish the card.
