DIY Room Decor: Here are step-by-step instructions for creating your quote:
- Search Google for your quote; copy it.
- Open a NEW document in Microsoft Word
- Click INSERT and then TEXT BOX; Draw text box.
- A + symbol will appear and you click and drag it to the size you want. Remember you are going to want this to be 8” x 10” so you will lose ½” on the sides and 1” from the top and bottom.
- Paste or type in your quote inside the text box.
- Change the font to whatever you wish.
- Manipulate the size so that it fits inside your text box.
- To remove the box around the text, right click on the Text Box and click Format Shape.
- On the right side you will see Shape Options. Click Text Outline and “No Line”.
- To center your quote on the page, click on the Text Box and go to Layout in the upper menu. Here you can change the Position. Center it.
- Print it out on Whisper White cardstock (this is important for you to be able to stamp on it)
- Cut ½” from the top and bottom and ¼” off each side.
- Stamp around your quote to create a gorgeous piece of art! Insert in an 8” x 10” picture frame.

when is it best to stamp before or after embossing?
I think you’re talking about dry embossing, correct? You always want to stamp first because stamping on embossed cardstock is not successful.
