Welcome to this little stamping challenge, showing 7 ways to use 1 stamp sets in 7 days. Tune in every day this week to see a new project using the same 3 tiny stamps. I am using the Lawn Fawn ‘Love You A Latte’ set, but only using the takeaway coffee cup, the moustache face and ‘Smile’ greeting to create 7 different projects. On some days the video will have a twist at the end, showcasing the same project using a different stamp set.
The point of these videos is to show you that even with just one hero stamp, one accessory and one greeting, you can achieve many looks on many projects. If you are working with a tight craft budget, it can be a little disheartening to find you can only afford a small set … but oh my goodness those small sets have some great life in them! Look for a set that is versatile, useful for many occasions, and you will find yourself using it over and over and over again.
Day 1, I’m making a large tag. I love large tags … you can use them on the front of a card, on a scrapbooking layout, as a bookmark, or even write on the back and pop it on a gift!

Coffee time, yes. They are both so cute.
Lovely! This is a great project. Thanks for the inspiration, I have been wanting to know how to do something different and there you are with a video series. Thank you. I can experiment with my stamp sets now.
How’s that for timing Jennifer?!! I’d love to see what you make 😀
Lovely yes but, why? Do you sell these? I’m not much of a scrapbooker but I do understand how it does spark your creativity.
Why the tag? They’re fun for scrapbooking layouts, but also make great bookmarks or can be added to a card 🙂
