I think you are going to LOVE this edition of Mystery Stamping!  It is card I have been wanting to try for a while.  As always, I will be making this card with you for the first time, so the finished product is a mystery to me, too!

Hint, if this is your first time joining us, you might consider prepping two sets of cardstock and DSP.  We lovingly call this “Pulling an Allison.” This ensures that if something goes wrong or you decide  you don’t like how something goes together you can easily fix it.

I do have a few open seats at the Stamp Pad for this session of Mystery Stamping and of course there is ALWAYS room for you to join us via Zoom.  Be sure to email me at tracie@stampwithtracie.com by 3:00pm on October 10th, so I can add you to the Zoom email list.  You should receive the email with the link by 5:00pm.  If you do not receive it by then, please contact me via text or email.

If you are joining us live at the Stamp Pad please arrive between 6:30 to 6:50pm to chat and get set up, so we can begin promptly at 7:00pm.  Please remember to keep chatting to a minimum in person or virtual unless you have a question about the project.  We will have time to chat and ask any non-project questions after we finish.

Email me at tracie@stampwithtracie.com to RSVP for live or virtual spots.

Here is the scoop on how our Mystery Stamping Parties work. – You will need to gather your supplies and cut your cardstock before the party. There is a list of supplies (some are suggested, so don’t worry if you don’t have everything) and cardstock dimensions below.

During the party I will give you step-by-step directions to make your card along with some tips and tricks.. We will NOT share anything about our projects until the very end.

It is always so much fun to see how everyone interprets the directions and with everyone using different stamps, cardstock, DSP, etc.., everyone’s card will be a one of a kind!

Please note that you CAN use anything you have in regards to stamp sets, punches, cardstock, DSP or embellishments. It can be retired if you have something you like and want to use.

Here is a list of suggested tools you need to get together before the party:

  • Choose a stamp set that has small to medium images  Matching dies or punches would be great, but are not necessary.
  • Greeting stamp set if the one you choose does not have greetings.
  • Ink pads, markers, etc…whatever you want to use that goes with your stamp set.
  • Ribbon, trim and/or embellishments to add that final touch to your project.
  • Paper Trimmer
  • Simply Scored
