Yessirreee, the June 2023 Essentials by Ellen Release is available now!
When I was first introduced to stamping and card making over 30 years ago, postage themed rubber stamps were VERY prevalent and I LOVED using my collection to make collage style greetings and dress up my envelopes! Back then, the art style was reflective of real/vintage postage stamps, as well as date and cancellation markings.
Today, we’ve given it a modern and refreshing whimsical touch and it is so much FUN to play with!
Stroll through the slideshow above to see a few ideas I developed (Alas, there’s never enough hours in the day to execute all the ideas running through my head . . . ) and be sure to check out the Ellen Hutson Instagram Hop for more inspiration and give some comment love to all the contributing designers for a chance to win in the giveaway!
Thanks for stopping by today—if you have time to comment below, I’d love to know which of the products speak to your card-makin’ soul! Also, if you have any questions about these samples, feel free to ask in the comments!
