Turnabout Tips & Tricks
Hello. I am happy to be back from vacation and stamping once again. In this video, I share techniques for the new-and-improved Concord & 9th Turnabout stamps. But if you don’t have Turnabout stamps, no worries. I share lots of other fun tips and tricks, too!

One of the most innovative stamp products in the last few years is the Concord & 9th Turnabout product line. I have used them in many videos… be sure to check out my playlist HERE.
However, recently, Concord & 9th has released a bunch of new products that make turnabout stamping so very easy! These products include the new Concord & 9th Everyday Bouquet Turnabout Toolbox Kit (SSS | C9), the Concord & 9th Turnabout Jigs (SSS | C9), and the Concord & 9th Turnabout Alignment Pack. I show each in the video, so I encourage you to watch it. In addition, I use many of the new turnabout stamps, dies, and stencils.
My first card features the new Concord & 9th Birthday Basics Turnabout Stamp Set (SSS | C9) along with colorful Altenew Inks. I added a balloon created with the Concord & 9th Birthday Basics Dies (SSS | C9).
To add the string to the balloon, I covered the string with Gina K Connect Glue until it was sticky. This allowed me to form it into any shape and hold it to the card perfectly.
Next up is the Concord & 9th Marbled Turnabout Stamp (SSS | C9). What an awesome stamp! After stamping it with pool inks, I used a banner die from the Concord & 9th Everyday Bouquet Turnabout Toolbox Kit (SSS | C9) to create a window on the front of a card with acetate sandwiched between.
On the front of the acetate, I glued the letters from the “thanks” Concord & 9th Everyday Bouquet Turnabout Toolbox Kit (SSS | C9) die, along with a Simon Says Stamp Big Thanks Word Stamp Set sentiment strip and gems. I also glued silver “thanks” letters inside of the card… lining them up on the letters on the front. I love the surprise inside!
Here is another card using the Concord & 9th Marbled Turnabout Stamp (SSS | C9), but this time with a bit of silver heat embossing. I LOVE this look!
The sentiment banner is from the Concord & 9th Hello Sunshine Turnabout Stamp Set (SSS | C9) and Dies (SSS | C9). The flowers and leaves are such fun… and created with the dies in the Concord & 9th Everyday Bouquet Turnabout Toolbox Kit (SSS | C9).
I also really like the Concord & 9th Hello Sunshine Turnabout Stamp Set (SSS | C9) and Dies (SSS | C9). These two can be used together and separately. On my first card, I used them together along with glitter paper for a stamping and die-cut-inlay combo.
And on this card, I used the Concord & 9th Hello Sunshine Turnabout Die (SSS | C9) alone. Such a cool look! The sentiment is from the Concord & 9th Hello Sunshine Turnabout Stamp Set (SSS | C9) … and I colored my pearls with Copic Markers.
My last set of cards features the Concord & 9th Stitched Turnabout Stamp Set (SSS | C9). I added a banner from the Concord & 9th Hello Sunshine Turnabout Stamp Set (SSS | C9) and a sentiment from the Concord & 9th Everyday Bouquet Turnabout Toolbox Kit (SSS | C9).
This next card features two fun techniques. First, the heart is actually a mini card that opens to reveal more of the greeting! I created the heart with the Concord & 9th Stitched Turnabout Stamp Set (SSS | C9) and Quilted Heart Die Set (SSS | C9).
Second, I did a fun uneven dimension technique on the banner behind the heart. Be sure to watch the video! The banner is from the Concord & 9th Everyday Bouquet Turnabout Toolbox Kit (SSS | C9).
My last card is a simple one… and uses only the Concord & 9th Stitched Turnabout Stamp Set (SSS | C9). I like that this set allows you to create a background frame, circle element, or a combination of both.
This set gives an amazing stitched look!
I hope this video was helpful. And a big shout out to Concord & 9th for their creativity! I don’t work for them, but rather admire them and their products. Good people!
