Triple Time Stamping

1. Cut a piece of card in half.  Fold one half in half again with a bone folder to create your card base.  The example here will make a portrait side fold card.

2. Using white or vanilla card cut three pieces for your layers:

3. Cut two backing mats in a matching colouring to your card base.  As a guide the backing mat should be larger than the layer by 1/8" to 1/4".

4. Layer your layers one on top of the other with the largest layer at the bottom.  To position the layers I use a quilting ruler as this is transparent and the inches are marked in 1/8".

5. Use a small amount of repositional tape adhesive to fix them in place.

6. Create a repeating pattern over the layered card.  Either stamp with different colours or colour a stamped image with your preferred colouring medium.

Large stamps create a more dramatic effect.

7.  My example was stamped with black memento ink and coloured with alcohol markers (Stampin Blends).

8. Once complete add a backing mat to layer two and layer three.

It is now ready to be mounted onto your card base.

Add a sentiment using foam pads and embellishments.
