IT’S TIME FOR A TECHNIQUE TUESDAY PROJECT

Today I want to share a project that focuses on the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. I have used it for dry embossing and die cutting. For this card I used both the machines – standard and mini.

The card I made was created for a Global Design Project challenge.

This card has several layers – a Basic White card base, panels of Timid Tiger and Peaceful Pine card, an embossed Basic White panel, die cut Barely Blush and Peaceful Pine lattice elements, die cut and coloured floral stems and a layered birthday greeting.

The Floral Spray 3D Embossing Folder was used to add texture to the Basic White layer.

The flowers were coloured using the Barely Blush Shimmer Brush and popped up using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Tomorrow I have a super simple card to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping and memory keeping.

TODAY IS MEMORY KEEPING MONDAY

This week I am featuring the Valley in Bloom Suite collection in all my projects.

It has been a while since I shared a memory keeping layout. When I saw the Valley in Bloom Designer Series Paper I knew that I wanted to create a page for my daughter’s friend April.

Kate attended April’s wedding in early July and I thought the paper I chose was perfect for this project.

For this layout I added three Pretty Peacock/white photo holders – one 6″x4″ and two $”x3″.

I stamped the numbered notebook image in Highland Heather and die cut it. Both of these are in the Extraordinary Life Bundle. This was then used as a journaling area.

i die cut several small flowers in Highland Heather and Basic White using the Lily of the Valley Dies. The flowers were added to the page using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Finally, I attached Adhesive Sheets to the back of some Highland Heather card and cut out letters for the title using the Alphabet a la Mode Dies.

After Kate gives her friend this layout, April can choose the photos she wants to add and then pop it in a shadowbox frame.

Although this is a simple layout it is a great way to showcase the design of the paper.

Tomorrow I have a technique card to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping and memory keeping.

ONE MORE SUMMER HAPPINESS PROJECT

My final Summer Happiness project is a 3D box that holds a packet of Tic Tacs.

This is one of my measure twice and cut once projects.

I think that my high school maths teacher would be pleased to see how I developed this 2D to 3D skill.

This flip top box was designed to fit a packet of colourful Tic Tacs.

After the box was created I added panels of DSP.

I stamped the greeting in Secret Sea and the flip flops in Crushed Curry.

Then I added some Secret Sea Flat Pearls.

Next week I will feature another product suite.

Until then, happy stamping.
