Sale A Bration 2015 Week 12 Day 2

Today I have a fab little card for a Wedding Shower
Using one of the stamps from
GIRLS NIGHT OUT
Stamp Set


I began by making a card blank using Blushing Bride cardstock by trimming the cardstock to 10.5 cms x  30 cms. Score at 15 cms & burnish the fold along the score line using a bone folder
Now trim a piece of Whisper White cardstock to 9.5 cms x 14.5 cms
Stamp this panel with the Something Lacey Stamp Set using Blushing Bride ink.
Mat (layer) into a piece of Blushing Bride cardstock


Next, Stamp the Celebrating Lady onto a piece of Whisper White Cardstock using Crumb Cake ink, BUT
Remove the colour from the dress portion of the stamp before stamping onto the cardstock and add colour using Stampin Write Pens and a Stamp A Ma jig to align the stamp image.
Die cut this using the Best Sized Ovals Framelit,
Now Die Cut a further Oval label, this time from Blushing Bride cardstock, using the next size up Oval framelit, Dry Emboss this label using the Beautifully Baroque TIEF.
Stamp the Sentiment from For You Two Stamp set using Black Stazon Ink onto White Vellum.
Once the ink has dried, trim the sentiment label to  cms high and use the Banner Punch to create Flag ends. To do this, you need to insert one  end of the label through the top of the  punch , guiding it between the cutting blades & Punch.Repeat with the opposite end. 

Layer up the label using Stampin Dimensionals, and attach to the centre of the card front.
Finally, attach the sentiment label to the top of the card front using Glue Dots, and mount onto your A6 Whisper White Card Blank (base).

Sale A Bration 2015 Week 8 Day 1

Today, Ladies and Gentlemen, I have another Wedding Project that has been Cased from the Stampin Up Annual Catalogue (pg 153). In my Wedding Workshop, these were being made into Place Cards and will be presented in vintage Teacups with saucers ... beautifully Kitch and Shabby Chic


And here is your Products List:

Tea Party Stamp Set
Subtles Designer Series Paper Stack
Subtles Stampin Write Markers
Neutrals Stampin Write Markers
Whisper White Cardstock
Kraft Cardstock
Scallop Tag Topper Punch
Project Life Corner Punch
Banner Punch
Ovals Framelits
Clothespins
Chevron Ribbon (pear Pizzaz, Marina Mist & Blushing Bride)
Linen Thread
Stampin Dimensionals
Tombow Multi-purpose Glue



This is great fun to do with a group of you ... it could be the bridesmaids, best man & ushers, and parents of the bride and groom.

But you could also easily adapt this into a greetings card in it's own right.

Begin by Colouring your Stamp using a combination of Stampin Write Markers from the Subtles and Neutrals Packs, stamping onto Whisper White cardstock.
We used Soft Suede to colour the frame/surround and sentiment, and  subtles markers for the flowers.
Stamp out as many as you you need in one go, then clean the stamp and just ink up the sentiment with the neutrals markers and again stamp our as many as you require. You will need to re-colour the stamps after each stamping.


Next, you need to cut out the stamped images using Oval Framelits. When doing this in large numbers is much less frustrating if you have a Magnetic Platform on your Big Shot as it will give you well positioned die cuts each time.
Apply Stampin Dimensionals to the reverse of the ovals.
Then die cut the next size up framelits, using Kraft Cardstock.
Mount the Stamped Ovals on top of the Kraft Card Ovals and apply Dimensionals tot he reverse,

Next, Trim the sentiments you stamped to just approx 1cm each side of the sentiment, and 1.5 cms wide. Then use your Banner Punch to create Banner ends to the labels. To do this, you need to insert the cardstock in through the top of the Banner Punch and guide the cardstock between the cutting blades and punch. Apply Dimensionals to the reverse of these too and attach them on top of the sentiment that was stamped onto your ovals.
Measure the width of your oval and the height and trim a piece of Subtles Designer Series Paper to 1cm wider and taller than the largest Oval layer.
Round the corners of the DSP using the Project Life Corner Rounder Punch.
Next, Trim a piece of Whisper White Cardstock to 5 x 11 cms and use the Scallop Tag Topper Punch to create the shapely top to the tag. Adhere this to the back of the DSP using small amounts of Tombow Multi-Purpose Glue
Thread a little Subtles Chevron Ribbon and secure it by tying a knot/bow with the Linen Thread.

It is time consuming when doing large amounts, but if you do it as piece work, (i.e. do one job at a time before moving onto the next task..)
Sharing the task of making your own wedding stationary etc, can make it a fun exercise and provides a very unique and personal Wedding!
What I offer is support as you plan and a couple of classes to help you on the way!

Stamp Set Showcase week 19 (2) Ornamental Pine

I can barely believe that Christmas is just over 4 weeks away. The Weather is SO mild here in the South East of the UK, that we haven't as yet had to put our central heating on! Such a contrast from the past 3 Novembers! However, our amazing old Oak Tree is finally shedding it's leaves, which the goats are loving as they are partial to the odd oak leaf or two.
Watching those leaves fall was delightfully distracting, as I worked in my workshop he he

But I have managed to get half of my swaps for the SAB tour next week. I will post the photo next week ..

But back to todays ORNAMENTAL PINE Card
and the colour scheme is Old Olive, White and Gold, and helped along with the Deco Framelits.
I have made my 6" square Card Blank, you will find instructions on how to do this from many of my past blog posts.


Once you have your card blank, you can start layering it up. From bottom layer to the top layer, trim the following cardstock to:

Old Olive Cardstock to 14.5cms x 14.5cms
Whisper White cardstock to 14cms x 14cms

Layer up the above and adhere to one another with a little Tombow Multi-Purpose Glue and then 

Next trim a piece if Old Olive Designer Series Paper (from the Brights DSP Pack) to 7cms x 13cms
Adhere this to the layered card on the left half of the cardstock..
Wrap a piece of Gold Satin 5/8" Ribbon around the middle of the card topper and adhere to the back of the topper using Glue Dots. 


Die Cut a Deco label from Old Olive cardstock (chose the best size framelit for your card).
Now die cut  the next size down Deco Framelit die in Whisper White cardstock.
Ink the Ornamental Pine stamp using Baked Brown Sugar ink for the branch stem and Old Olive for the Pine (apply the ink carefully so you do not contaminate the ink pads)
Apply Stampin Dimensionals to the reverse of the Whisper White Stamped Die Cut.
Layer the two deco Labels and them mount them in the centre of the card topper. Mount the topper onto the card blank using small amounts of Tombow MP Glue.

Next stamp 3 pine cones using Golden Encore Ink, and cut out your paper snips. Remember to rotate the card and not the scissors for a better finish. Curl the pine cones from underneath using your bone folder to create a rounded cone, Apply Stampin Dimensionals to the reverse of each pine cone.
Adhere to the Deco Label.
Add 3 Stampin Dimensionals to the pine cones.

Next stamp your Sentiment onto a scrap of Whisper White cardstock using Versamark Ink, and without stamping, then ink the sentiment stamp with Old Olive Ink, Stamp, dust with clear Embossing Powder, remove the excess and heat set using your Heat Tool.
Trim down the sentiment to 1.5cms.
Create banner ends by inserting the sentiment label into the Banner Punch from the top (so one one end will be cut), turn and use the Banner Punch in the same way so you end up with a sentiment label with banner ends at each end.
Apply Stampin Dimensionals to the reverse and attach to the bottom centre of the card.
And there you have it. I would love to see your own versions of this card, via my Google + page, Facebook or Pinterest ...
