Today I am showing you a very easy technique that will add a WOW factor to your project. It is known as 3D or Shadowing.
Tips:
- By stamping your image twice, you can create a shadow or 3D effect.
- Ink your image with coloured ink and then stamp on card stock. Without re-inking, stamp the image slightly off from the original image. OR
- Ink your image with coloured ink and then stamp on card stock. Stamp the same image in a very light colour slightly offset to the first image.

Thanks Mal. You can definitely use the Stamparatus to do this technique. Don’t move the stamp, just move your cardstock on a slight angle before the second stamping. It may be best to practice on scrap paper first to get the angle that you need for the offset.

Great idea. Question though – I tend to use my stamparatus for all stamping so could I use it to create this technique or do I have to use a block. Suppose using a block would be easier and quicker.
