I am sure you have all heard my rave about how much I love my Silhouette Portrait, but now I love it just a little bit more! The folks at Silhouette have created a stamping starter kit, so in addition to all the wonderful things you can do with a Silhouette Machine, you can now make your own custom clear stamps! How cool is that?
I got to do a little playing with the Silhouette Stamping Starter Kit this weekend and this is what I created:
I created some Halloween themed treat bags by cutting out the Silhouette shape and stamping it onto small muslin bags that I bought at the craft store. There are so many fun things you can do with this stamping kit.
It’s super easy to use. You simply cut out the shapes onto the stamp material and then adhere the shapes to one of the 3 different size acrylic blocks that come in the starter kit. There is a grid on each of the acrylic blocks so it’s cinch to get them strait. Then use the stamp pad that comes in the kit and stamp away!
