Inspiration comes in all forms - including stamps. I absolutely adore motivational sayings. I'm one of those weirdos that has them hanging in her office and her bedroom and... well basically anywhere with a little bit of empty wall space.
That's why I was SOOOO excited when STAMPlorations announced they were coming out with a line of inspirational typography stamps. These stamps are one-man shows and perfect for making quick, impactful cards.
I played around with two of the stamps from the line.
This one uses the Beautiful Destinations stamp.
Yep! That is all one stamp! I stamped it twice - once in blue and once in red so I could cut out the van and give it a little POP.
I wanted to play along with the current challenge at Just Us Girls so I used some fun designer papers from Bo Bunny and a couple of cute enamel arrows.
Next up, I used the Doubts stamp to create this little number.
What I love about these stamps is that they speak for themselves. A little splash of watercolor and some background stamping with the In Bloom: Floral Bliss Trio and voila! A card was born.
Today we are showcasing 13 of the 33 new Typografia Motivate stamps over on the STAMPlorations blog and we're giving some away, too! Go check it out!

Contemporary cards and the sentiments really do pack a punch. Love the clever use of the blue and red on the stamp on the first card and love how you've kept the background stamping on the second card without colour...love them! x
