I created another tutorial that shows how to make a wallet out of cardstock. It has 4 pockets for gift cards and has a larger pocket to hold money--just like a real wallet!
It's a tutorial. It's a video. But it's not a technique.
Many people ask how to ink up a jumbo cartridge so Stamper did a video about it. There's a good card on there at the end & it's always fun to see where the director show up.
I just posted a video on my blog explaining how I used a masking technique to create backgrounds for cards and scrapbook pages. You can view it at: http://michellesrubberroom.blogspot.com/
I'm not sure if something like this has already been posted, but I just uploaded a mini tutorial for a money holder graduation card. You can find it here: http://stampwithdiane.blogspot.com/2...-tutorial
Just posted my latest video tutorial. It has 3 projects that reuse envelopes you receive as junk mail. Check it out at: http://michellesrubberroom.blogspot.com/
Just posted my latest video tutorial today. It gives instructions on making small boxes to hold business cards, ATC's, or gift cards. Here's the link: http://michellesrubberroom.blogspot.com/
I put up a new tutorial just now. It's for the wood letters I've been doing forever. Someone here, forget who, asked me to do one- and I finally have! It really is simple-- but I have to say, making your own letters makes it even better!
I came up with a great technique, it is called smoosh, squish & spray. You start with glossy paper. I used photo paper. I filled a spary bottle with water and 2 drops of food coloring.
Then I take a baggie, I open it up along the side and the bottom. Now it is open like a book. I take two similar shades of a color. Lets say blue, bashful blue, and blue bayou. I used my ink PAD, I smoosh the color on one side of the baggie, lets say the bashful blue is on the left. Then we take the bayou, and smoosh it on the right side of the bag. You then close the bag. Take your bone folder and squish your colors together.
Open the baggie back up. Take your spray bottle with your water and food coloring, spray once or twice on the inside of the baggie. Close the baggie back up. Use you bone folder again, smoosh it along the baggie, open the baggie up. Take 2 pieces of your glossy paper. Put them back to back, glossy side out. Close your baggie again, use your bone folder and create your pattern on the glossy paper.
I have several versions of this technique on my gallery. It is a great NEW technique, I created it, and it is a lot of fun! Why don't you join the fun!!!

I am searching for the piano hinge book tutorial, I very obviously did not create it but I made a book for a friend and she would like the directions...can someone post a link? thank you so much!
Dara, Can you please tell me where your gallery is with the "smoosh, squish & spray" technique?
Thanks much....hugs....ps
To get to Dara's gallery, scroll back up to her post and click on her name in the left column to get a drop down menu. You can choose to view her gallery there. I wonder if she has a blog too!

Nope, sorry, no blog, haven't had the time, or know how to figure it out. I'm in school full time these days. I seldom have time to stamp these days. I do it when I can, but thanks for the interest.
What is paper tole and does anyone have a tutorial other than the flower...when I look at cards that say paper tole it just looks like they layered or stacked the paper of certain parts
