Authentique artwork in stamp form?  Yes!

With stamps you can create multiples, such as invitations or transfer an image to your favorite background paper in your favorite color of ink. I love stamps...can you tell? :)

For my Hampton Art project, I chose one of the sweet silhouette shapes from the ICO232 cling stamp set and the Remembrance Collection.

For my little hanger I used a Maya Road chipboard album page as the base. I traced the shape onto Remembrance 2 paper and then cut out.  Next I stamped the cute silhouette image and sentiment onto a grey cardstock with Color Box's Gooseberry Ink. I added one of the sticker frames over the image with foam dots.  The 3-D flowers were created with a punches from McGill and Remembrance 6x6 bundle.

For the centers of the flowers I took two crystal rhinestones by ZVA Creative and colored the tops with a white PITT Artist Pen by Faber-Castell.  Once it was dry I rubbed a walnut ink pad across the raised areas. Lastly, I tied on a generous hanger from May Arts wired ribbon.

What could be better than Authentique Paper's™ "Pride" and "Seasons: Summer" paper collections?  Some fabulous stamps from Hampton Arts® that feature Authentique Paper's designs!  Here's a couple of card ideas to get you inspired!

Seasons: Summer Card

There's a lot of pattern play with this card design, with highlights from the Hampton Arts® stamp set.  IMAGINE Crafts®/Tsukineko® Memento Luxe™ pigment ink in Bahama Blue was used for the stamping and IMAGINE Crafts® Embossing Powder in Clear to emboss the stamped images.

Close up of the Hampton Arts stamps used in creating this card.  The papers featured from the "Seasons: Summer" collection are from the 6 x 6 Bundle and include "Summer One" and two different solids found in this pack.

The base of this card is "Summer One" paper cut to a finished size of 5 x 7 inches, layered with a piece of "Summer Two" paper that was edged with Memento Luxe™ Bahama Blue.

Next add the "Summer One" layered piece that was stamped with the bird, then add the sentiment banner over this piece with dimensional tape.

Add the layered flower pieces towards the bottom right corner, then layer with the floral vine stamped piece ("Summer One" paper) and "You Are My Sunshine" both with dimensional tape.

Pride Card

Time to show your "Pride" with this great card!  There's lots of details in this card and I wanted it to have a "postal" theme so I used this Hampton Arts® stamp set to highlight this in the paper.

All of these pieces were stamped using Memento Luxe™ in Nautical Blue and/or Love Letter, then embossed with clear embossing powder.  The American Map was cut out from the "Privilege" paper, then stamped with the script writing stamp.  A star sticker from the 12 x 12 "Details" sticker sheet was added in the upper left hand corner of the mailing label stamped image.  The postage stamp was stamped on white cardstock (then cut to size) and the "Keep Me Posted" and "Just because" pieces were stamped on the script on red paper from the 6 x 6 "Pride" bundle.

To create this card, adhere the American Map in the upper right hand corner.  Next take the two printed strips from the "Details" 12 x 12 sticker sheet, dove tail cut the ends and adhere as shown.

Add a piece of sheer navy ribbon across the mailing label, then layer with the postage stamped piece with dimensional tape of choice.

To finish this card, add the Statue of Liberty sticker from the "Details" 12 x 12 sticker sheet and place the "Keep Me Posted" stamped piece on top.  Add the "Just Because" ticket piece in the upper right hand corner with dimensional tape to finish your card.

Hope these ideas inspire you on your next projects!
