Hey all! It’s your friendly neighborhood Toiny here with a fast & fun trick to make your layouts a lot more you, with just a little effort. Today I’m playing with the wonderful new Resilience by Just Because Studio (Dani), April’s Traditional ANTHOLOGYFLEX selection.

resilience
[ri-zil-ee-uhns] noun – English
the capacity of a person to maintain their core purpose and integrity in the face of dramatically changed circumstances.

Dani has seven unique stamps as part of her members-only bonus. These are available this April only & are absolutely fabulous! I’ve loved playing with them already, and I’m going to show you how to extend the fun even further.

I’m going to start with my favorite stamp:

I slide a background paper behind it. This will be the base of my layout.

Unfortunately, the paper I picked makes part of the lovely stamp practically invisible. Luckily, there’s a quick fix for that. Added bonus, it gives me an entire new stamp in two quick clicks.

  1. I drag a new paper above the stamp

  2. Create a Clipping Mask

  3. You can adjust size and/or location of your paper. I didn’t for this example:

Go give it a try with your favorite stamp & papers.
