Hi everyone! Welcome to the myStampBOX blog!
I think my favorite scrapbooking supply is paper, specially patterned paper. I love the colors, the designs and I love to cut it to create my own embellishments. Today I wanted to challenge you to create a project using only cardstock, no patterned paper, embellishments , alphas, etc… only cardstock!
It was really hard for me to use only cardstock for my LO but my myStampBOX stamps helped me so much!! This is the LO I created:
I wanted to make something simple and to use different cardstocks for my background. I chose 4 different Core’dinations cardstock and in each one I created a different backgruond with white embossing powder and my stamps.
I used my Deck the Halls and Funky Flowers sets to create the background and the Hive of Life set to create the embellishments, I then added them with my Zap Dots for Helmar and they added the perfect touch!

For the title I used the same technique with my Rough Copy Alpha set.
When I finished this LO I realized that cardstock and stamps offer so much versatilty! sometimes I feel a little overwhelmed with all those embellishments, alphas, stickers, etc… It was nice to come back to basics. Now it’s you turn, we’d love to see what you can do with only cardstock and your stamps, please leave a comment here if you try it out!
Bye!





Your layout and created papers have a really clean, crisp feel. Looks great!
I love how the white ink pops from the colors you chose. Great job!!
Wow that’s fabulous. I can never get white embossing powder to behave so well.
Wonderful layout Eva! Love the bright colours and the beautiful patterned papers you made rock!
It’s fabulous!! Love the colors and patterns that you’ve created!
I totally agree that at times it’s great to go back to the basics! Great challenge and super nice page! I love the alphas here too!
Love that idea Eva! Your layout is so great! Long live stamps!
