Welcome

Welcome To Techniques Zone, an Online Archive of some of my favourite Backgrounds, Rubber Stamping, Card Making, Paper Crafts and Mixed Media Techniques.

Ive decided to revamp and give my site a fresh facelift and move all of my pages to WordPress as its easier to edit them and change their format when I get bored….

Below are the links to the menu’s of the selected Techniques and Projects Ive chosen as my favourites to share with you.

Some of them where written a long time ago (think dinosaur era) so some of the products Ive used in the various tutorials may be a little dated now (a bit like me)

I hope you enjoy them

Images Are Back

Just a quick FYI, I noticed a lot of the old images from older pages where missing and several of you had emailed me and informed me of this too.

I am currently re-uploading all the missing images so they should now start to appear again shortly.

Thanks again

Label Stamping Technique

I was once asked to show someone in person how to do this technique in person because they couldnt imagine how you get all those little labels lined up so neatly – they imagined that Id peeled them all off one by one and stuck em on singly – I may be mad but I aint THAT mad

For the benefit of anyone who never quite grasped this technique first time around Ive took a coupla shots with the digital camera to show the steps of how you do the transferring the labels to the card part – a picture is worth a 1000 words right?

Label Stamping Technique Instructions:

1. One sheet of labels still on the adhesive backing all stamped and ready to be transferred over onto card:

2. Slightly peel off the labels on the left most edge as seen below:

3. Flip the sheet around and fold the adhesive backing back onto itself like below:

4. Place the stickers down onto a sheet of card stock and gently pull the backing paper from behind till they have all stuck down onto the card like so:

5. Repeat steps 2 & 3 with the next row of labels:

6. Place the labels onto the card and carefully align them with the labels which youve already stuck down on the card:

7: Gently peel the backing paper from behind till all the labels have stuck down:

8. If your label sheet has more rows repeat these steps till they are all stuck down and its finished:
