HELLO FUN FOLD FRIDAY

My Fun Fold card today is a SIDE STEP CARD and it has been quite a while since I last made one.

I am continuing with my Mother’s Day theme this week and have decided to feature the Celebratory Sips Suite Collection.

The Side Step card base was made using one of the new 2025-2027 In Colours, Timid Tiger.

I also used some of the Cloud Cover and Secret Sea cardstock.

After adding the card and DSP panels, I added Adhesive Sheet to some Timid Tiger card and cut ‘mum’ using the Mini Alphabet Dies.

I enjoyed fussy cutting all the colourful drinks and layering them across the side step card.

The ‘cheers’ greeting was stamped and cut using one of the banner dies from the Stylish Shapes Dies.

The card insert and back of the envelope were both decorated with a fussy cut drink.

This soon to be released collection of products is going to be so much fun to create with.

The final touch was to add some of the Crushed Curry Adhesive-backed Dots for Days.

Next week I will have more inspiration to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping and scrapbooking.

THURSDAY & THAT MEANS IT IS TIME FOR A 3D PROJECT FOR MOTHER’S DAY

I found two delightful soaps that I wanted to create gift boxes for, for Mother’s Day. One has a sweet, berry aroma and the other a mango and passionfruit scent.

I created two boxes measuring 3″x 3″x 1 1/4″. One was made in Crushed Curry and the other in Strawverry Slush.

The top of each box had a square panel of the floral paper, from the Celebratory Sips 12″x 12″ DSP pack, attached to it.

I cut several flowers and leaves to decorate the top of each box. The flowers came from the Country Flowers Dies and the leaves came from the Thankful Garden Dies.

The greetings were stamped in coordinating colours before being cut using one of the squares from the Stylish Shapes Dies.

These greetings were then attached to the lid with Stampn’ Dimensionals.

And, finally, tomorrow I have another Fun Fold card to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping and scrapbooking.

A WEEK OF MOTHER’S DAY PROJECTS

In the lead up to Mother’s Day, I thought I would focus on projects for this special day.

My first project is in memory of my mum. I created a scrapbook layout and popped it in a shadow box frame.

I used this floral paper from the Celebratory Sips 12″x 12″ Designer Series Paper pack.

The title was made by adding Adhesive Sheet to the back of some BLackberry Bliss card and then cutting the letters out using the Alphabet A La Mode Dies.

The three photos were mounted on Blackberry Bliss mattes and attached to the DSP.

Finally I cut lots and lots of flowers and leaves in the coordinating colours and attached them to the white matte to create cascading floral features.

The flower dies are from the Country Flowers Dies and the leaves from the Thankful Garden Dies.

The top left photo is mum in 1952 when she was 12. The larger photo is from 1962 when she was 22 and the last photo was from 1965 just after we returned from an overseas Air Force posting.

I love the idea of framing a scrapbook layout and having it out on display for the family to see.

My next post will be a Mother’s Day card.

Until them, happy stamping and scrapbooking.

I will be able to create a product list, with all the new products, from May 6th. In the meantime I will share a partial current product list.
