How would you use this stamp?

Depending on what sort of paper you plan to use for your base, it would be neat to use Versamark to create a watermark background with it. Now no idea what I would do after that.... but it would be a start.

I'm kind of a minimalist, apparently. I'd mat it or double mat it and let it speak for itself.

I don't know how big it is, but if you think the detail would hold up to it, I'd heat emboss the whole thing in shiny red on white card stock, and give it a red border. Done.

Exactly what I was going to say. I've done that with a holly background stamp on red and it was lovely.

Thank you! You've given me an idea of what to do with a similar sized Hero Arts stamp I've had for years. I bought it from a Pea several years ago. It has Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year large in the middle. With a background of tiny "Merry Christmas" and "Happy New Year" all over.

I had all these plans for it but I only stamped it a few times and heat embossed it. So hard to do what I wanted to do with it on a wood block. I'm going to drag it out, peel it off the block and put it on cling mount so that I can use it on my homemade stamp press. That way, I can use the cats eye/dew drop pads to ink the color I want on the words I want. Might even heat emboss it.

I'm going to do some white on red cardstock, and maybe on red cardstock, do the background white and the big words gold or silver. It would be a nice simple card front since MOST of my cards inside are popup cards. Either a popup Christmas tree or another scene on a pop up.

Good grief, I thought I was going to have to "fight" it. I just grabbed a hold of the rubber and it came right off!

Excuse me, I've got to get busy!

What I'd do with that one, is put on a stamp press, have each section or strip across a different color. Do a fancy border and then a popup inside. But then I'm a pop up freak.

I didn’t see it until you pointed it out.  Now I can’t not see it!

Stamp it with VersaMark on any colour pp you like, then heat emboss with gold or silver ep. Or White ep on a red background? Then mat it in the same colour as your ep, and glue to a white card base.

Guess now we found the spelling error, you need to pop up a die cut over that part of the stamped image.

I think it could be fun to stamp it in black but then highlight one of the phrases only in red - maybe embossed. then use diets or other stamps to match the phrase. Like for the stocking line you could run a line of string under the phrase and hang stockings. If you did one of the santa images you could use an appropriate santa image. Even the night before Christmas you could make like a scene of a village or house on Christmas with just that phrase highlighted and the rest fading into the scene. I hope this makes sense. lol
