More Faux Postage

Oh, hi! I've got another card to share using the Extreme Postage Die Set by Whimsy Stamps. I just couldn't resist using the Hello Bear stamp set for this one.

I started out by die-cutting three postage stamps using the Extreme Postage Die set from Cougar Super Smooth card stock. I masked off the edges with some Washi Tape and then stamped the bear and bee using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I created masks for the bears using Inkadinkado Masking Paper and covered up the bears. Then I did a bit of ink blending with Tumbled Glass Distress Ink.

I removed the masks from the bears and colored them up with my Copics. Then I removed the Washi Tape to reveal a nice white border around the bears. Viola! Faux postage!

I cut a piece of patterned paper from the Bizzy Bears paper pack down to 5 3/8" x 4 1/8" and adhered it to a white notecard. I adhered the "postage" stamps onto a piece of yellow card stock and then added foam tape to the back and adhered that to the front of the card.

I stamped the sentiment with VersaFine Onyx Black ink onto a piece of white card stock and trimmed it down to a skinny strip. I adhered it to the front of the card with foam tape and ta-da! All done!
