Tips from the show

• The two-part stamps don't need to line up perfectly; they're forgiving in design and the slight offset creates an intentional, artistic look.
• You can use the outline stamp independently on any project or card without the colour portion.
• The results look like you've painted the design yourself, making you look like an instant artist.
