IT’S SIMPLY TIME TO MAKE SOME #SIMPLESTAMPING CARDS

It is Saturday and that means #simplestamping.

It’s as if I slept in today because I am late sharing my projects today.

This week I am featuring the New Horizons Suite Collection.

NEW HORIZONS SUITE COLLECTION (ENGLISH)

Today’s cards a super, quick and easy.

As you can see, this card was made using just stamps, ink and paper. The trees and birds images are from the On the Horizon Stamp Set, as is the sentiment.

I have also stamped the trees on the envelope and inside the notecard. This is such a clean and simple card.

For the second card, I added a strip of the New Horizons 6″x 6″ Designer Series Paper.

There’s not much else to say about these cards. Now I’m off to step these cards up for tomorrow’s post.

Until then, happy stamping.

LET’S MAKE A FUN FOLD CARD

For my Fun Fold Card today, I decided to make a Criss Cross Card. This is the last project featuring the Hey Sports Fan Suite Collection for this week. Tomorrow, I will have a new suite to showcase.

This makes a great birthday invitation. I love the way all the colours and die cut pieces make this so colourful – perfect for an invitation.

The criss cross is very easy to create and I will have a Youtube Video Tutorial to share soon.

I cut the triangular Designer Series Paper to add to the cross over flaps. Tear & Tape Adhesive was used to seal the bottom of the card.

The large ‘You’re Invited” ticket was cut from one of the DSP sheets. I tore the ‘Let’s Get Together & Celebrate’ stub from the top section. All the tickets were then attached to the card front.

The invitation insert was cut using the second largest Stitched Rectangle Dies.

I cut three of the long, small tickets strips in Bumblebee, Night of Navy and Poppy Parade. Two tickets, in all three colours, were torn of and attached to the top corner of the insert. This created a useful way to pull the insert out.

Three tickets , in each of the colours, were then staggered in the opposite corner.

The trio of stars and birthday greeting were stamped on the insert.

The final touch was to add some of the Resin Stars Embellishments to the card front.

Although this collection has a strong baseball theme, this week I was able to make projects that had a more general sporting theme. Baseball is played in Australia but it does not have as a high a profile as other sports.

Tomorrow I will bring a new product collection to feature for the rest of the week.

Until then, happy stamping.

TODAY’S 3D THURSDAY PROJECT HOLDS A SWEET TREAT

It is so much fun to create a new 3D project each week. This week I found a Salted Caramel treat in a little bag that is similar Bumblebee in colour.

So I decided to buy it and create a little gift bag to put it in.

I spent some time measuring and trialling the design.

The Delightful Tag Topper was perfect for this project. After cutting, scoring and punching the box base, it was time to start decorating.

I cut pieces of the Bumblebee and Very Vanilla stars DSP to cover each of the sides.

When the bow is untied, the front falls open revealing the treat.

To decorate the front panel, I cut three strips of the mini tickets and tore them to have 3,4 and 5 tickets. I overlapped the tickets and used Stampin’ Seal+ to hold them together.

After the tickets were stuck together, they were attached to the panel with a Mini Glue Dot.

Tomorrow I will have a Fun Fold Card ready to share with you and that will wrap up this week’s featured Hey Sports Fan Suite Collection.

Until then, happy stamping.
