VIDEO TUTORIAL – MONOCHROMATIC STAMPED FLORAL PATTERNS
I filmed a video tutorial to show you how these cards came together. Its very easy to stamp patterns like these and I encourage you to give them a try. Watch video below or on my Youtube channel:

CARDS DETAILS + COLOR OPTIONS:
I stamped four patterns in pink, yellow, mint and purple colors. I used at least 4 colors of ink for each pattern + Antique Gold embossing powder to heat emboss the sentiment.
Even though I used mostly dye inks to stamp these floral patterns, other types of inks can also be used, such as hybrid and pigment inks.
- Pink colors of ink used: Rosie Cheeks, Teeny Bikini, Apricot, Sunkist and Twirling Tutu.
- Yellow colors of ink used: Duckling, Sunshine, Melon, Apricot and Golden Locks (Hybrid).
- Mint & Blue colors of ink used: Lake Shores, Mint Candy, Spring Rain, Surf Blue and Cloudy Sky.
- Purple colors of ink used: Hot Momma, Doll Pink, Thistle and Wisteria.
All of my stamped patterns were trimmed with the help of Simon’s Basics Rectangle die (I used 2nd largest) and foam mounted onto A2 top folding landscape white notecards.
I followed Jennifer McGuire’s tip and instead of using foam adhesive squares I went with fun foam. I didn’t have any in white color so I matched the color of fun foam to the color of stamped pattern for a fun pop of color (you can’t really see it there, I die cut the foam sheets using 3rd largest rectangle die from Simon, so foam layer ended up being a step smaller than stamped panel).
I wanted to keep these cards very simple and flat too, so I only added one clear droplet to each – I adhered it under the sentiment with the help of a quickie glue pen.

MAMA ELEPHANT TINY NINJAS CARDS
I mentioned I have a LOT of projects to share today – there are 3 more cards I want to show you created with the help of Mama Elephant Tiny Ninjas stamp set. I fell in love with this stamp set the minute I saw it as it is ideal for masculine cards. I struggle with masculine cards, check out THIS Birthday card for my hubby, so I feel this stamp set is a good one to have in my stash.
For my first card, You Snuck Your Way Into My Heart I stamped all ninja images in Hero Arts Charcoal Ink. To turn this into an shaker, I die cut an opening in my stamped panel with the help of Simon’s Stitched Circles die, adhered a layer of acetate and foam mounted this over a Distress ink blended background. For the shaker elements I used Pretty Pink Posh clear stars confetti. The sentiment, You Snuck Your Way Into My Heart, was heat embossed in WOW White embossing powder onto black cardstock and was foam mounted onto the panel. I also used clear sequins and droplets to embellish this card.
For my second card, That Means Thank You, I first heat embossed ninja images in clear embossing powder over black ink onto Distress Watercolor Cardstock. Next I blended several colors of Distress inks and added water and finally I heat embossed the sentiment in white embossing powder. This is a very simple one layer card.
For my last project, You Can Do It, I stamped ninjas in several colors of ink onto a white cardstock panel. The main ninja was stamped in black, I also used Willow, Slate, Scuba and Mint Candy.
The stamped panel was adhered onto a black card base and the You Can Do It sentiment was foam mounted using black foam tape. Just like with the first ninja card (and many other cards of mine), I used clear sequins and droplets to embellish this card.

I love your patterned creations… I thought of you just last week when I finally tried out stamping a floral background… I enjoyed the process and the outcome so am looking forward to doing more of them. Thanks for inspiring me to play with my stash! Have a great day! 🙂
Crazy dogs, by far! Being a mom to 4 grown men means cutesy doesn’t cut it. But grunge is a big hit!
Thank you for this idea, even though I don’t have that Oh Happy Day stamp set, I do have solid florals in my collection and this is definitely something I have to try. Lovely work as always Yana.
As to my favorite stamp set so far in the set, I’d have to say Mama Elephants Ninja set is so adorable.

Beautiful floral stamped backgrounds and super cute ninja cards! Thanks for your tips and techniques you share in the video. I love the Altenew stamp set as well as the SSS one you used (I’m a sucker for floral sets) and the whimsy alphabet because it’s so different from anything I have.
Got to be the Crazy Dogs!
Love your creations! I think my fav is the ninjas!
Love your color combos for the background, very pretty!

Those flower cards are so feminine and beautiful! And who doesn’t love cute little ninjas? Love your ideas today.
Glad you did you cards without masking. This makes them easier and quicker. Love the colors.
I love your monochromatic florals. They are perfect for summer!
Really loving that SSS new floral set!!!!
Absolutely beautiful color combinations Yana! I think I need more ink! I love watching you create your works of art. Thanks for sharing!
The flowers are stunning! The ninjas have really caught my eye! I’d ink them up in a flash to make cards for my nephew. After all, he *is* a ninja (he’s four….). Thank you for the gift certificate opportunity…

Absolutely gorgeous! Thanks for the wonderful ideas.
I love the little ninjas as soon as I saw them and now that I have seen them in use (on your cards) I love them even more. I too struggle with ‘guy’ cards and think the ninjas would be so fun.
I loved your video on the flower background and will be trying that technique out tomorrow.
