Sunshine in my pocket

Layering Stamp Ideas

July 5, 2019 Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I have a layering stamp set of Seahorses from the Hedgehog Hollow June 2019 kit.

There are so many beautiful beachy images in this kit: shells, coral, bubbles, fish, etc. But those seahorses really spoke to me! So that is what I used for my very first card make with this kit.

Multi-colored seahorses

I love layering stamps for adding easy color to my cards. Just choose some different shades of ink and start with the lightest color. Then add the darker color over the top for the second layer, and so on. If you don’t have multiple shades, then stamp the ink multiple times to get a darker shade!

I have a process video for you showing you some tips on making LOTS of seahorses for your cards that is oh-so-easy.

Watch it below or on YouTube:

I love using a stamping platform with a ruler for such easy placement and stamping the many layers! So easy and quick.

Those layers!! Solid bottom layer, Detailed second layer in a darker ink

I did fussy cut out these seahorses (above), but the image is easy enough to cut out.

I’m often asked what products I used on my cards, so I’ve compiled a list for you using affiliate links when possible. When you purchase something using these links I may receive a small commission. These help me to keep up with blog costs and bring you more fun projects! Thank you so very much!






I hope I inspired you to try this method on any of your layering stamps! Thanks for stopping by.

May your days be filled with sunshine,
