Tutorial Tuesday for JustRite Papercraft - Christmas Card Ideas using Background Stamps and Gelatos

Hello everyone!  Today, I have a Tutorial Tuesday project and video to share with you.  Now I know you are probably thinking--wait a minute it's Wednesday not Tuesday LOL.  Yes, we are sorry and apologize for the delay.  The weather in the Midwest has been kind of crazy the past couple of days and our electricity has been out a couple of times.   

For the tutorial I will show you how to use Gelatos with your Christmas Background stamps.  


For the first card I used the CL-02049 Christmas Postcard Background Cling Stamp.  I show how to layer and blend the Gelatos using a Q-tip and baby wipes.  


I used the CL-02063 Ornament Background Cling Stamp for the second card.  This is a quick and easy card and I share how to create a watercolor wash using the Gelatos.

To find out all of the details with a written step-by-step tutorial and lots of pictures and a video tutorial please hop on over to the JustRite Inspiration Blog!

  7. i'm so crazy-impressed about the dimension you've created in the leaves. it actually looks like you've cut and adhered additional leaves for the 3-d effect. I make about 35-40 Christmas cards each year.

  9. Love this image and I saw the excellent tutorial too! I have the first stamp and you really did it justice. I also really like where you put the name of the color on the gelato cap. Duh me here!! ;-)
