A BIRTHDAY CARD BY SPECIAL REQUEST

The card I am sharing today was made by special request. I love it when family and friends ask me to make cards for them to give to a specific person.

For this card, a shade of purple was the only requirement – so I chose Gorgeous Grape and Highland Heather. to coordinate with the Violet Dreams Designer Series Paper.

This is such a beautiful collection of products and I’m looking forward to creating more projects with them.

This card measures 6″x6″ and has a custom envelope.

I decided to make a fun fold card so that I could decorate the panels with different DSP.

I used the Words & Wishes Dies to create the birthday greeting.

I’m looking forward to giving this to my daughter so that she can give it to the mother of her partner.

Tomorrow I am going to start sharing some projects that I have made using a different product suite.

Until then, happy stampinh.

TODAY I HAVE A PUPPY CHRISTMAS TREATS GIFT BOX TO SHARE

I totally enjoy creating gift boxes of all shapes and sizes.

This box features Poppy Parade and Garden Green A4 card.

The base uses a full A4 sheet and was scroed at 2″ on all sides.

The lid started as a full A4 sheet before I trimmed away 7/8″. The sides were then scored at 11/16″ to ensure the lid has enough leeway to fit the base perfectly.

Before the lid was assembled, I added a length of Garden Green & White Chevron Ribbon to the front using Stampin’ Seal+.

Then I adhered a North Pole Delivery DSP panel to the box lid.

The greeting is from the Keeping Traditions Stamp Set and was stamped before cutting the Basic White panel at an angle, on the Garden Green panel.

After adding Adhesive Sheets to the back of some Poppy Parade card, I die cut the letters needed to finish the greeting. I used the Alphabet a La Mode Dies for this.

To finish the lid of the box, I added a pair of precut dogs from the same North Pole Delivery DSP pack.

Next week I will have a new collection of products and projects to share with yuo.

Until then, happy stampijng and scrapbooking.

TODAY’S PROJECT IS ANOTHER FOLD OUT, POP UP CHRISTMAS CARD

The card today measures 6″x 3 1/8″ and has six internal fold out panels.

This card has a Balmy Blue exterior and White Willow interior and exterior panels.

For this card I used the Traditional Labels Bundle,North Pole Delivery Specialty DSP and Pop Up Petals Dies.

For the front of the card, I adhered a SDSP panel before securing three lengths of the Real Red & White Baker’s Twine.

The greeting was stamped in Pecan Pie and die cut. A Real Red banner was also die cut and trimmed before placing behind the greeting. I used Stampin’ Dimensionals to give these layers dimension on the card front.

Then I added elements from the SDSP pack – two pre-cut Christmas shops and three fussy cut envelopes. Finally, I added some of the Real Red & White Peppermint embellishments.

Inside the card, I staggered the pop ups diagonally – the first is 1″ from the top of the white insert, the second/middle is 2 /8″ from the top, and the last was 1″ from the bottom.

The inernal panels were decorated with the DSP, pre cut elements and fussy cut envelopes.

On the back of the card I added two White Whisper panels, a DSP gift card pocket and some further pre cut elements.

There are so many more ways that I want to use the Pop Up Petals Bundle – but, I’ll save them for now.

Tomorrow I have a 3D project to share with you – I know that it isn’t 3D Thursday and should be Fun Fold Friday – but who cares!

Until then, happy stamping.
