Garden Meadow Thinking of You Card

-

 Hi Crafting Friend,

Well, I was playing in my stash again. This week I combined a retired Host DSP with current cardstock, ink, and an online exclusive stamp set using a card sketch from page 22 of the 2024 Annual Catalog.I love how bright and cheery it is! 

The card base is Pretty In Pink cut to 8 1/2" X  5 1/2" scored, folded and burnished at 4 1/4" on the long side. 

I deviated from the sketch a bit and added a layer of Pretty In Pink cut to 4" X 5 1/4" and also edged the layer with Pretty In Pink using a sponge dauber. 

All the other measurements are in the photo of the card sketch (Thank you to Frenchie for providing the measurements for all the card sketches on page 22) 

To make the banner, work on the back side and make a pencil mark at the center point of both short ends. Lightly draw a line connecting the two marks. Measure 1/2" in from each end along that line, then cut from the outside corners to those marks and you will have a perfect banner.

Edge the DSP pieces with Blackberry Bliss using a sponge dauber.

Stamp the sentiment using Blackberry Bliss, then edge it with Pretty In Pink.

When assembling the card, adhere the DSP peices and the sentment together with Multipurpose Liquid Glue, then use Stampin' Dimensionals to adhere the whole thing to the card front.

The insert is 4: X 5 1/4" You could edge this with Pretty In Pink if you want. (I forgot to do that) Add a 4" X 3/4" strip of DSP to the bottom of the insert to finish off the card.

All the products used are linked below. Just a reminder that all bundles and the Stampin' Cut & Emboss machine are on sale during this month. (June 2024)

Hello Hills of Tuscany Fun Fold Card

-
Image
 Hi Crafting Friend, Welcome to 2024, the new Mini Catalog and the Sale-A-Bration Brochure. This Spring Mini catalog is always my favorite, especially when you add the benefits of Sale-A-Bration to it. There are so many adorable stamp sets, dies, DSPs and other goodies! Do you like this catalog as much as I do?  Today's card uses the Hills of Tuscany stamp set. The images were stamped directly onto the DSP, (house - white craft ink, roof - Cherry Cobbler, trees and sentiment - Shaded Spruce) the house was then heat embossed with white embossing powder. The card base is Shaded Spruce cut to 8 1/2 X 5 1/2 and scored on the long side at 2 3/4 and 4 1/4. Fold it in half and then fold the card front back as shown in the photos below.  The Gorgeous Grape layers are 1 7/8 X 5 1/4 for the front and inside left; and 4 X 5 1/4 for the right side.  Cut a 1 inch strip off the top of the DSP to use on another project, then cut 2 pieces, each 1 3/4 wide from the left side (the trees that you sta

Grassy Grove Clean & Simple Card

 Hi Crafting Friend, This card was inspired by a couple of cards I saw on the Facebook Clean & Simple Cardmaking page.  (by Tracey Agli & Darla Anderson Welch) They were both mostly white with some color blending and minor stamping behind the tree dies they used. I thought of these stamps & dies when I saw them.  The card base is 8.5 X 5.5 scored on the long side at 4.25 then folded and burnished to lay flat. The doe and fawn were each die-cut twice, once with Pecan Pie and once with Basic Black then layered together with the black in the front. Place black mini dimensionals as shown in the photo below.  The "moon" is a 1 inch punched Lemon Lolly circle.  The grove of trees was also die-cut twice, once on a 4 X 5.25 piece of Early Eapresso, the second on a piece of Early Espresso just barely bigger than the die itself. The smaller die-cut was off set behind the larger, then Multipurpose Liquid Glue was used at the bottom edge of the smaller die-cut to secure them

Hello Happy Sea Turtle Card

-
Image
 Hi Stamping Friend, The card I have for you this week is the second of three I designed for the swap using products from the new January-April 2023 Mini catalog and the Sale-A-Bration brochure. I paired the Sea Turtle and Happy Labels stamp sets from the mini catalog with Delicate Edges dies and Texture Chic DSP from the annual catalog. To me they seem made for each other.  This card is really quite simple if you have the basic tools. The DSP makes a perfect background. The turtle is fussy cut, the "seaweed" is die-cut. I gave the seaweed & turtle some dimension by using my bone folder to add some curl to the paper. The turtle is popped up with dimensionals, the seaweed is adhered with Multi-Purpose Liquid Glue, but I played with it, making sure some areas were slightly raised off the paper so it looks like it could be moving in the water. What do you think?   Thanks for stopping by, Live Long & Craft On! -Susan 🌄🖖 Product List Sea Turtle Photopolymer S
