 Hey stampers, welcome to another week of Watch It Weekly Wednesday. I'm Beth, part of the Stamping Joe creative team, and I want to show you today some simple stamping techniques. When I saw this stamp set in the mini catalog, Conversation Bubbles, I thought it was so fun and on trend and my kids would love it. So I wanted to take this and pair it with some bright colors and some really simple techniques and make some fun cards. We've got our basic white note cards and envelopes. You get 20 of these in a package, but they come with a note card that's pre-scored and a little envelope that works with it. And then I chose just some bright colors. You don't have to use all of the stamp colors that I chose. So even if you just have one stamp pad, I'm going to show you how that will work. But this is kind of the color palette that I chose from. We're just some of our brights. And then I have our Conversation Bubbles stamp set, and I have a clear B block. So Stamping Up has these labeled as different letters, so you can tell which one it is. So you know that that B block will work for every size of stamp in that stamp set. So I just wanted to use just the one block so we could simplify. So let me show you what I made with these products, and then I'll show you another card that we can make. This one just says Thank You. So cute. But I also made sure to decorate the envelope. There's just a note with two different colors. Cute. Decorate the envelope. Again just a note. There's a little star in there. I liked that. So I put that on the envelope as well. This one I thought was clever. It's like a little text conversation. Hello. Hi. Love ya. Little heart emojis. And then a wow on the outside. I thought this was cute. Actually I thought it could work for Valentine's Day even. Just simple, fun. And then this one here. Wow. And you can see this isn't actually a stamp in the stamp set. I just inked up my clear block and put it directly onto the paper. So I want to show you that today. And I want to show you a couple little techniques of what you can do with simple stamping to use what you have or if you're going to purchase just a couple of products. This is a great place to start. So I'm going to take my basic white note card. This when it's folded comes to three and a half by five size in inches. So the nice part about that is it's not a lot of card to try to decorate. You just have a little bit and a little bit goes a long way with these. So I'm going to take that and fold it down. I'm going to take my clear block and I'm going to add flirty flamingo in the background here. But I'm going to ink up my block, my actual block, okay. And then I'm going to do a technique called stamping off. So I'm going to stamp it off, meaning I'm going to remove some of that color so it's a lighter color on the block now. And I'm going to stamp that down on my note card. So that just gives me kind of a little background there, okay. Now I'm going to take my conversation bubble stamp set and I'm going to pull out, let's do our thank you stamp. Now I need to clean off my block because it's got that ink on it. So I'm just going to wipe that off on my chamois, make sure it's nice and clean. And then I'm going to pick up that thank you stamp, put that on my block. And I'm going to use the flirty flamingo, but I'm going to use it full strength. So it's like I have two different stamp colors, but I don't. So cute, right? So fun. And then you just have to take your envelope and you're going to add another little thing on there or a few things if you'd like. Clean that off and change it to stick it down, add it in the corner down here. And you're all set to go with a little thank you card and a cute envelope that coordinates. Isn't that so easy? I love simple stamping. It's such a great place to start, but it's also a really great way to very quickly make a bunch of cards if you need to. I love to give these cards as gifts because everybody needs all occasion cards. This stamp set, the conversation bubble stamp set is a great choice if you want to get into the foray of simple stamping. It's got all these cute things. You can make some backgrounds, play around with different colors. I think it'll be great. So make sure you add basic white note cards and envelopes, this and a B block to your card and you'll be stamping a note.

I'll see you next week for another Watch a Week in Wednesday.
