Day One with Guest Designer Alice Carmen - All Boys and Pattern Basics Clear Stamps

Good morning. We are happy to have Alice Carmen as guest designer for the next 3 days. Today she has some great projects for the boys in our lives. For more inspiration please visit Alice's blog - Cards by Alice.

Here's Alice:

I created this round card when I saw the sentiment from All Boys Clear stamp set. I love the blues and greens so I knew choosing these colors along with the black would make the stamps pop off the card. I also used Pattern Basics Clear Stamps to create the background on my card.

You can stamp and create a background just using the same stamp over and over again. The stamps are clear so you can stamp patterns from the Pattern Basics Clear Stamps set and repeat the image without losing your place to get that perfect look.

For this card I used the Pattern Basics Clear Stamps and All Boy clear stamps. I thought these two sets work well together to create a fun yet masculine look. I repeated some techniques here like I did on my previous card and then added a few fun stars. The tickets are from the Pattern Basics Clear Stamps set and the No. 1 is from the All Boys Clear Stamps set.
