THURSDAY MEANS THAT IT’S TIME FOR A 3D PROJECT

The momwnt I saw the pull cart image in the Just Kiddin’ Designer Series Paper and thedies in the Filled with Fun Dies, I knew that I wanted to make a 3D pull cart.

When I made this (26 March) we still had Easter ahead of us.

I started by creating a small rectangular cart base. Then I was able to attach the Poppy Parade cart sides and the Basic White timber textured side panels.

The wheels were made using Basic Black card and Poppy Parade inner circles. I added Adhesive Sheet to the Poppy Parade card to make it so easy to fill in the centre of the tyres.

I cut two of the pulling mechanisms in Basic Black and adhered them together. After leaving the lower ends of the mechanism, I was able to fold them open and adhere them to the catd.

The greeting, from the Excellent Eggs Stamp Set, was stamped onto a small piece of Basic White scrap. I adhered this piece just inside the cart.

The bunny was stamped and coloured using Smoky Slate and Pretty in Pink Stampin’ Blends. It was die cut and then adhered to the greeting panel.

Tomorrow I have a Fancy Fold card to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping.

THURSDAY MEANS THAT IT’S TIME FOR A 3D PROJECT

Today’s project was inspired by a project I made last year at a Paper Angels Team Day. It is a sweet and simple Easter basket.

The basket is made using a 7 1/2″ x 7 1/2″ piece of Lost Lagoon card.

It was scored at 2 1/2″ along both sides. Along the top and bottomsides, the card was cut 2 1/2″ in, leaving the centre panel uncut.

Then I cut six 2 3/8″ x 2 3/8″ Basic White squares. They were then embossed using the Cane Weave 3D Embossing Folder.

These embossed pieces were attached to the three panels on each side of the base.

I used Tombow Multipurpose Glue to overlap and adhere the top and bottom panels to create these angeled basket sides.

Before securing the central Lost Lagoon panel, I created the handle. I used a 3/4″ length of Lost Lagoon card and a 5/8″ strip of Basic White card.

The white card was also embossed, in two steps. Then the embossed strip was attached to the Lost Lagoon base piece.

I adhered the handle inside the basket and then the remaining Lost Lagoon panels were glued over the top of the handle ends to secure them.

The basked was finished with soem die cut and assembled eggs and a stamped and die cut Easter greeting.

Finally, I added some Lost LAgoon Tinsel Gems 3 Pack embellishments.

Last, but not least, I added some Easter eggs to the backet.

WELL, WHAT’S HAPPENING THIS WEDNESDAY?

For today’s card I decided to use the Countyrside Inn 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper, because one of the designs has bunnies on it!

As it turns out, there is no stamping on this card.

I started with a Misty Moonlight cardbase and then added a layer of the striped Designer Series Paper.

The largest Countryside Inn Die was used to cut a panel of the bunny design DSP.

The two layers of DSP were adhered directly to the cardbase.

Two of the smaller, detailed eggs were cut, with Adhesive Sheet on the back.

I also cut the ‘Celebrate’ die from the Wanted to Say Dies. After peeling back the adhesive sheet backing, I positioned the Misty Moonlight greeting over the whoite outline of the greeting.

The eggs and greeting were positioned on the card front.

I also cut two Misty Moonlight detailed eggs to add to the card insert and the envelope.

Using white twine, from the Baker’s Twine Essentials Pack, I created a triple bow to add to the card front.

Finally, I added some Irifescent PAstel Gems to the card front.

Tomorrow I have a classic Easter egg basket to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping.
