5. Stamping

Tracy Kyle finds that stamping can help solve almost any challenge on her pages.

TIPS
Go big. After stamping the letters for her title, Tracy scanned them into her photo-editing program and resized them to a larger format. She then printed the letters and cut them out individually to create her title.

• Be an original. On the cream patterned paper, Tracy stamped in various colors to create her own unique design. The result ties in all the other colors on her page perfectly.

SOURCES  Patterned paper: Creative Imaginations (blue-and-cream script), 7Gypsies (black), Making Memories (folio). Rubber stamps: Autumn Leaves (title), Postmodern Design (diamonds), Hero Arts (dot circle), Savvy Stamps (“xoxo”). Ink: Tsukineko. Stickers: 7Gypsies (small label), Paper Source (large label). Chipboard accents: Heidi Swapp (shapes). Design: Tracy Kyle.
