AN EXTRA POST THIS WEEK

I used the same suite of products to make an extra project this week.

My daughter asked me to make a birthday card for her partner’s mum. I’m always happy to create a card for a specific person.

After showing her some of the designs from the Painterly Pears DSP pack, she chose the one I used for this card.

It is a super simple card but so gorgeous because of the paper design and colours.

I used an Old Olive card base and then a panel of Petal Pink card as a layer for the DSP.

Before adding the stamped and punched greeting, I added two this card layers as alternative to using lengths of ribbon.

The greeting, from the Encircled in Love Stamp Set, was stamped then coloured using the Light Petal Pink Stampin’ Blend Pen.

The greeting was punched out with the 1 3/4″ circle punch and then added to a 1 7/8″ Petal Pink circle.

I stamped and coloured the same image onto the back of the envelope.

I stamped the birthday wishes greeting inside the card.

Mission accomplished – my daughter is very happy with the card I made.

Next week I will have some more projects to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping and scrapbooking.

FUN FOLD FRIDAY HAS ARRIVED

Hello and welcome to my Fun Fold Friday share.

Today I have two Triangle Fold Intersecting Cards to show you. The only difference between them is the DSP designs I have chosen from the Painterly Pears Designer Series Paper and ribbons that coordinates with them.

I love these new pears inspired paper designs. There are 12 different designs in each pack – 2 each of 6 double-sided papers.

Aren’t they stunning?

Both card bases are Secret Sea, one of my new favourite colours.

Then I cut triangular panels from card to add the DSP triangles to.

Before adhering the triangular layers to the card base, I secured two lengths of the chosen ribbons so that I could create a bow closure on the card front.

I added more of the DSP patterns to the card insert and the back of the envelope.

Tomorrow I have a bonus project to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping and scrapbooking.

IT’S TIME FOR A 3D THURSDAY SHARE

I recently bought a raspberry scented soap to create a gift box to pop it in. When we have guests I like to place a gift box, with soap in it, on their bed.

The soap was a perfect match to Melon Mambo card and the pinks in the Painterly Pears Designer Series Paper.

After creating the gift box I added a piece of the DSP to the top of the lid.

I used one of the stamps from the new Encircled in Love Stamp Set. It was stamped using the Secret Sea ink. Then I coloured the bow using the Light Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blend.

The 1 3/4″ circle punch was used to punch out the stamped image. A length of Swcret Sea Faux Linen Ribbon and secured it under the circle.

Then I took the new 1 7/8″ circle punch and cut a Daffodil Delight circle to position under the white circle.

Using Stampin’ Dimensionals, I attached the circles to the top of the box.

Tomorrow I have two fun fold cards to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping and scrapbooking.
