It seems like the hottest new trend is BUFFALO CHECK and plaid background. It’s everywhere! Today I’m going to show you how to make a greeting card with a plaid background using the buffalo check stamp. Whether you are looking at clothes, home decor, kitchen dishes or…whatever, you’ll find plenty of inspiration for your card design ideas with this fun stamp.
Stamparatus Meets Buffalo Check
The Stamparatus makes stamping the Buffalo Check (and all big background stamps) and plaid background so easy.
In today’s video I show how to create a template for the Stamparatus so that you can ensure you line up your big stamps straight and where you want them on the cardstock. I also show how to turn the Buffalo Check into a Plaid and how to get multiple colors on one stamp….. Sit back, enjoy, and learn some tips for making quick & easy cards!

Love this background stamp! Thanks for the tips. I was interested in watching the triangle fun fold card you posted earlier this week, but the video says it is unavailable. Has anyone else had a problem viewing it? Thanks!!
Thanks Pam. The “triangle fold” went out accidentally and the post and video is not quite ready yet. It will be posted next week and then the video will work. Sorry about the confusion.
Thanks for getting back to me. I’ll watch for it!
One of the best video’s on using the buffalo check stamp and the stamparatus. Thank you so much for providing some great tips.
Thanks so much Kathy!! So glad you enjoyed the buffalo check :)!
