...yeah, you, like the other 90% or so in the stamp challenge that had those little perforations all around the edges and cool borders and the date-stamp cancellation...
How do you do it?! I was going mental just getting the right look on my entry, so had run out of time and patience to try and learn how to do perfed edges.
So if you all used the same perfed-edge tut or something, can someone puhh-leazze forward me the link?
The stamps I use don't come with perferations.
(So last century)
Mine just peel off a backing strip.
Many of the adhesive-backed stamps in booklets still have perforations on some sides. I'm surprised more of us don't design and order our own stamps ....
I laid my stamp out first, without a picture, a smaller white layer on top of the dun layer, then punched out a set of shapes one by one around the edge. Used the nudge feature with cntrl held down, 4 nudges per move at the scale I was operating to. It worked a treat. Then I added the other stuff in, the image and the text and the cancellation.
I did it the long way I opened 2 blank pages and made one green the shrunk the white one and put it over the green.
Then I used the eye dropper to get the same green then use the pencil (I think) to go around edge of the entire white boarder.
I just followed the edge eye balling it the whole time.
