Here I made 4 cards with some fun and easy simple stamping. These come together super quick with minimal supplies.

Video Short
Watch this video short to see how to stamp all 4 card fronts at once using a single sheet of Basic White Cardstock. While there are 5 different ink colors shown, I only end up using two (Misty Moonlight and Balmy Blue). You can get a wide range of color from a single color by stamping off to create various shades.
- Find center of the sheet and make a small pencil mark
- Start stamping the background images in the center of the sheet
- Work your way outwards from the center going both horizontally and vertically
- Once you have your background images stamped, cut into 4 card fronts that each measure 4.25″x5.5″
- Stamp focal images where desired
- Stamp sentiment
Card 1 – Lighthouse Happy Birthday
Here I trimmed down the front card panel and lined everything up on the left side of the card base to create a slightly offset look.

Card 2 – You Are My True North
Here I trimmed the card front horizontally into 3 sections to highlight the sentiment.

Card 3 – Set Sail
No trimming on this one, just clean, simple and centered.

Card 4 – Let Hope Be Your Anchor
Here I trimmed the card front panel vertically into 3 sections. I adhered the left side first, trimmed and placed the other two accordingly.

I hope you enjoyed this #simplestamping project as much as I did making it.

Awesome! I can’t wait to try this with Polished Pink and the Dressed to Impress set!
Oh my these are such wonderful cards and the video was perfect. Short, simple and to the point. Loved the backgrounds you created and how well they adapted to this stamp set. Thanks for inspiring and sharing.
Love this technique. This card can be so easily adapted to different stamps sets and colors. Genius!
This technique and your cards are fantastic! Thanks for sharing!
