TIME FOR SOME FRIDAY FUN

Friday is usually my funfold day but today it is just going to be a fun card.

I enjoy making shaker cards but first I have two super simple cards for you.

For all three cards today I have used Basic White card bases and Night of Navy panels.

The first navy panel was cut using the rainbow die and I placed one of the Boho Vibes DSP designs under the die cut panel.

The greeting was stamped in Cajun Craze and was cut using one of the Stylish Shapes Dies. Then the ‘darling’ was stamped in Night of Navy before being cut down and placed over the original ‘good’.

For the second card I used the rainbow outline die and used a different DSP design to place under it.

The greeting panel was achieved in the same way before it was placed on the card front.

Then I made the shaker card.

For this card I took the same DSP design but cut it into strips. Each strip was adhered to a Basic White panel with the design being realigned – make sure that you take a good look to see what I did.

After cutting the rainbow outline I secured a panel of window sheet behind it. Then I added Foam Adhesive Strips around the shape.

I filled the space with Loose Gold Sequins and adhered the card base to it.

This week has been fun featuring the Boho Vibes Suite Collection – and I only used two of the dies.

Next week is still in the decision making phase – you will have to wait until Monday to discover what products I will be featuring.

Until then, happy stamping and scrapbooking.

THURSDAY IS ALL ABOUT THE 3D PROJECT

For today’s 3D project I wanted to create a triangular gift box.

Each of the sides measures 3 3/4″x 3 3/4″. The base and lid triangles are 3 1/4″ with half inch flaps on each side.

A small note about two-tone card – when it is cut you can see the white core.

I cut three of the outline arched shaped from another of the DSP designs.

Using a paper piercing tool, I made two small holes to thread some white baker’s twine through so that I could secure the lid.

I cut a slightly smaller triangle for the lid and stamped the greeting and decoration.

The 2025-2027 In Colour Flat Pearls were popped on top of the small sunburst.

I’m not sure what I will pop inside the box yet but it will be tasty!

Tomorrow I have three more cards to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping and scrapbooking.

TIME FOR SOME WEDNESDAY UPDATES & A CARD WITH RUFFLES.

The first update is to remind you that the Virtual Album Retreat is happening from 17-19 July.

All you need to do, to join in, is order the Retreat Kit.

In early July you will receive an email from Stampin’ Up! with details about how to join the exclusive Facebook group where the three days of live event will be streamed.

After the event you can access the recorded event videos on the Virtual Album Retreat Facebook group page.

If you order your kit through me, you will be invited to an exclusive event that I will be hosting in Brisbane. This event will give you the opportunity to meet fellow paper crafters, finish your layouts and have some fun.

Today’s card uses a Petal Pink card base and a piece of the Boho Vibes DSP.

To create the ruffle feature, I cut four lengths of the Mossy Meadow DSP and used an uneven fan fold technique. I turned the ruffle over and applied small amounts of Multipurpose Glue to secure the folds in place.

The ruffle was then glued to the Basic White and DSP panel. Then I wrapped a length of Petal Pink Scalloped Ribbon around the ruffle.

This panelmwas then adhered to the card base.

The greeting was stampe, three times, in Mossy Meadow and then cut using one of the Stylish Shapes Dies.

Each of the greetings were then added to the card front using the dimensionals.

The card insert and back of the envelope were then finished with DSP.

Finally I added some Mossy Meadow Muted Palette Dots.

Tomorrow is my 3D day so I have a triangular gift box to share with you.

Untilthen, happy stamping and scrapbooking.
