I Got You A Cake

Posted on July 14, 2021July 13, 2021 by Josee

Measurements: 

  • Cinnamon Cider: 8-1/2” x 5-1/2”, 5-1/2” x 4”
  • Basic White: 5-1/4” x 4” (inside of card); Scraps for all of the images, large enough to die cut
  • Bloom Where You’re Planted Brick Pattern DSP: 5-1/2” x 4”

Instructions:

  1. Fold the large piece of Cinnamon Cider cardstock in half and sharpen the crease with a Bone Folder. Set aside.
  2. Glue the Designer Series Paper to the smaller piece of Cinnamon Cider cardstock. Don’t be stingy as this entire layer will be die-cut.
  3. Using the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine and the Picture This die with the circles, die-cut the designer paper/cardstock layer. Punch out the circles, and then use the largest Stitched Rectangle to cut around the edge of the layer.  Attach to the card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  4. Stamp the goats and tin can onto scrap Basic White cardstock using Memento ink. Colour the images using Stampin’ Blends as follows:
    1. Dark Cinnamon Cider for the horns (no blending)
    2. Ivory for the wool at the top of their heads
    3. Dark & Light Crumb Cake for their bodies and the can
    4. Dark & Light Polished Pink for the flower
  5. Stamp the ‘cake’ sentiment onto a smaller piece of scrap Basic White cardstock. Carefully ink the ‘… but I’ part of the sentiment and stamp onto scrap white cardstock.  Clean the stamp, and then carefully ink the ‘Ate it’ side of the stamp.  Stamp immediately below the ‘… but I’ words.  You could do this with a Basic Black Stampin’ Write Marker but it’s not difficult to do with the Memento ink pad.
  6. Die-cut each image individually using the Picture This die. Adhere all six images onto the card base.
  7. If you’d like, stamp a tin can in the bottom right corner of the larger Basic White cardstock and then attach it to the inside of the card.

Hello Pretty Flowers

Posted on June 30, 2021June 27, 2021 by Josee

Dimensions

  • Melon Mambo: 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″, scored at 4 1/4″
  • Petal Pink: 4″ x 5 1/4″
  • Basic White: 3 3/4″ x 5″  AND  4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ for cutting out flowers and leaves.
  • Shimmery White: approx. 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ for cutting out flowers and leaves.
  • 2 x Adhesive Sheet: approx. 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″

Directions

1. Cut a piece of Adhesive Sheet to the same size as the Shimmery White cardstock. Remove backing and place the Shimmery White cardstock on top. 

2. Use the die to cut out the flowers and leaves.
TIP: you can use Press ‘n Seal on top of the die so that the cut-outs stick to it and keeps you better organized. I didn’t have any on hand so I winged it…lol.
Finally, a plastic wrap that doesn&#39;t treat you like garbage

3. Carefully place the cutouts on a piece of paper in the order they will go back in. Without the Press n Seal, you will have to be more careful to not lose any pieces.

4. Use Stampin’ Blends to colour the pieces. Use the darker colours closer to the inside and lighter colours towards the outside of the pieces.

5. Remove the backing of the Adhesive Sheet, add Basic White cardstock to it and cut out using the detailed die. Carefully remove the backing of the adhesive sheet. You can use the Take Your Pick tool to help with smaller pieces. Adhere the detailed die-cut to the Basic White cardstock.

5. Once coloured, start adding the “insides” into the detailed die-cut. I used dimensionals to pop up the larger flower pieces. Use Wink of Stella to the flowers to add shimmer.

6. Stamp the greeting onto a small piece of Melon Mambo cardstock and cut ends. Add to the card using Mini Dimensionals.
7. Colour the gems with the coordinating Stampin’ Blend colour and add to the centers of the flowers.

Happy Birthday Flowers

Posted on June 28, 2021June 27, 2021 by Josee

Dimensions

  • Daffodil Delight: 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″, scored at 4 1/4″
  • Pool Party: 4″ x 5 1/4″  AND  4″ long
  • Basic White: 3 3/4″ x 5″

Directions

  1. For the bold layer- Cut a piece of Adhesive Sheet to the same size as the Watercolor Paper and the Basic White cardstock. Remove the backing of the Adhesive Sheet and place the Watercolor Paper and Basic White cardstock on top.
  2. Use the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss machine to cut out the bold layer with the Watercolor Paper/Adhesive Sheet and the detailed layer with the Basic White Cardstock/Adhesive Sheet. Punch out all the centers.
  3. Colour the bold layer using the different colours of ink. I pressed the ink pads on top of a Stampin’ Block and picked up the colour with a Water Painter.
    TIP: Keep placing the detailed layer on top of the colouring to get an idea of where the colours look nice.
  4. Glue the detailed layer to the bold flowers using the Fine-Tip Glue Pen.
  5. Adhere all layers together.
  6. Stamp the greeting on the bottom of a piece of Pool Party cardstock.
  7. Use the Paper Trimmer to cut just above the stamped greeting. Attach greeting to the card using Mini Dimensionals.
  8. Add 2 In Color Jewels to the card on the greeting layer.
