Instructions:

These cards can be wonderful to make if you are the tedious type. The two sided stamps are the only stamps used with the exception of the single op art card that also makes use of F433 Atomic Explosion that is stamped over the finished op art card.

The success of this card depends on the colors that you use and the use of a stamp positioner.

A stamp positioner is a funny little gizmo that takes some patience and practice but every stamper should own one for ease in lining up images exactly where you might want them. Different people prefer different types, but I certainly prefer the little purple one from EK Success called a Stampa Ma Jig. The only fault I have with this product is that it comes with a piece of clear plastic and the manufacturer should have made this piece of plastic attachable to the positioner so you would not lose it.

These cards are simply repetition of shapes from the two-sided stamps. Often another shape is simply stamped over the first geometric shape.

The long card is actually five different cards that are attached by double stick taping back ribbon to the backside.
