Welcome to today’s 2-Minute Tuesday Tip video!  Did you know there is a difference in how to ink up a solid image stamp verses a lined image stamp?  In today’s video, I will share with you a few inking tips that might help you create perfect stamped images every time.

I love sharing tips to make your stamping time smoother and if you struggle with inking stamps, getting ink on the sides of the block, or getting less than perfect images, today’s video just might be a solution for you.

It’s as easy as kissing a bunny!

Here is a simple note card I created with the images I stamped in the video.  It’s so easy!

Here are the measurements for my card:

• Whisper White Note Card & Envelope
• Berry Burst – 3″ x 4 ½” 
• Whisper White – 2 ⅞” x 4 ⅜” plus 2 ½” x 5 ½”

Today Christina sits for her 2nd exam to become a certified teacher.  She is a little nervous so if you have a moment today, say a little prayer for her.  This test is almost all focused on Speech & Debate, a subject that she didn’t get a lot of instruction on in college.

Christina has studied and I know she is prepared for it but she is still a little nervous. Who wouldn’t be?

Tomorrow she will sit for the final exam she needs.  It’s a lot to tackle in 2 days but better to do it all at once while everything is fresh in her head.

She won’t get the results until October so we have a LONG wait for that but at least she will have the tests done and out of the way.

That’s it for me today my stampin’ peeps!  I hope you’re having a great week so far.  I am up to my eyeballs in laundry from our trip but I hope to squeeze in some stamping in between loads!

See you tomorrow!  I have a GORGEOUS NEW stamp set to share with you!  Brand new!!!  You won’t want to miss it!
