TODAY IS A SATURDAY SPECIAL

Today I have two cards that a made a week or so ago for one of the GLobal Design Project challenges. The theme was flowers.

I used the Happy Hibiscus Bundle and Mini Corrugated 3D Embossing Folder for both of them.

After preparing the card base and embossing the Basic White panel, I used the 1 7/8″ Circle Punch to cut out the space where I placed the greeting circle.

I embossed more white card to cut out two more circles, using the 1 3/4″ Circle Punch.

Then I used the Happy Hibiscus floral dies to cut all of these flowers.

I I secured the embossed circles to the corrugated panel and then attached all the flowers to it.

The dark Flirty Flamingo Stampin’ Blends pen was used to splatter the card front and colour some of the Drusy Embellishments that I placed in some of the flowers.

The greeting was also stamped on inside the card and the back of the evelope.

The second card was created in a similar way to the first.

To create the flowers I applied multiple layers of the Extraordinary Flora Washi Tape to a piece of Basic White card. Then I die cut the flowers.

I used the dark Mossy Meadow Stampin’ Blends pen to colour the Drusy Embellishments and leave flecks of colour across the corrugated panel.

Some Petal Pink strands from the Braided Trim were used to create the bow that was added to the card front.

I am so happy with how well these washi tape flowers turned out.

This is a weekend when I will be sharing another card tomorrow.

Until then, happy stamping and scrapbooking.

LOTS OF FUN THIS FUN FOLD CARD FRIDAY

Today I have a Buckle Fun Fold Card to share with you.

I started with a Basic White card base.

After securing the buckle strip I added some panels from one of the Cloud Cover spotted kit cards.

The Strawberry Slush doily element comes from the Birthday Fancy Kit.

I cut Cloud Cover and Basic White circles using the Stylish Shapes Dies. After adding Stampin’ Dimensionals to each of the layers I added a mini magnet to the back of the circles and adhered them to the buckle.

A second magnet was added between the card base and Cloud Cover layer to help ensure the buckle stays closed.

The cake elements were added to the card, as were some Strawberry Slush Flat Pearls.

The greeting was stamped using Strawberry Slush ink.

The card insert had a second greeting added as well as a cherry image.

It has been loads of fun creating these projects using the Birthday Fancy Kit.

I have a couple of bonus projects to share with you over the weekend.

Until then, happy stamping and scrapbooking.

3D THURSDAY HAS ROLLED AROUND AGAIN!

For today’s projects I used some of the card bases from the kit.

I made two different sized gift boxes.

I made the larger gift box using two of the cardbases. The cards were scored and trimmed before being glued together to make the box.

The second gift box, perfect to pop a chocolate into, was made with just one card.

I used the Unbounded Love and Stylish Shapes Dies to cut the backgrounds for the heat embossed greetings.

The gold shapes and greetings were added to the top of boxes using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The weight of the cards is perfect for making sturdy gift boxes.

Tomorrow i have a fun fold card to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping and scrapbooking.
