Sending Smiles Classes

Today I am sharing the cards made for my April Classes using the Sending Smiles stamp set and Sending Dies.

Colours used in these projects are:

 

Shadow Box Card

Thick Basic White card base 5¾” by 4⅛x 2”– scored at ½” & 1” on both log sides
Scrap Basic White

 

Using the Stylish Shapes Dies we cut a circle in the centre panel one of the Thick Basic White card pieces, slightly nearer the top and centred from side to side between the 1” scorelines. The two pieces were placed one on top of the other and drew around the inside of the negative circle, lightly using a pencil.

 

The large circle from the Watercolor Shapes stamp set was inked up, ½ with Granny Apple Green and the other half with Fresh Freesia buy pressing the inkpad directly to the stamp. We stamped it over the pencil circle which was then erased. The sentiment was then stamped onto the circle.

 

The scorelines were folded and burnished, the 1” scoreline inwards and the ½” scoreline outwards. A strip of Tear ‘n Tape applied to the outer two sections of the back panel. The front was then adhered to the back, one side at a time.

A selection of foliage and flowers were stamped onto the scrap Basic White panel and die cut using the Sending Dies. We then arranged the flowers around the aperture.

 

Circle Daisy Card

Fresh Freesia card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Granny Apple Green – 5⅛” by 3¼”
Basic White – 5⅛” by 3¼”
Basic White – 5½” by 3¾”
Fresh Freesia – 3¾” by ¼”

 

The circle image was inked up in the same way as for the previous card using the same Granny Apple Green and Fresh Freesia inks and stamped towards to top of the smaller Basic White panels.

The leafy sprig was stamped twice, once facing upwards and once facing downwards in Granny Apple Green ink. The flowers were added in Gorgeous Grape ink with centres of Daffodil Delight ink. The stamped panel was then added, off set, to the Granny Apple Green panel with liquid glue.

We stamped the smaller flower in Fresh Freesia ink in the upper left and lower right corners of the Fresh Freesia card front and added the decorated panel overtop on Dimensionals.

The sentiment from the one happy family was stamped in Gorgeous Grape ink onto the strip of Fresh Freesia and added it, trimming the ends, across the card front.

 

Double Flower card

Granny Apple Green card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Gorgeous Grape – 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Basic White – 5¼” by 3½”
Basic White – 5½” by 3¾”

 

The rectangle image was stamped as before onto the smaller panel of Basic White card. The leafy sprig added to one side in Granny Apple Green ink.

The duo of flowers were added in Gorgeous Grape ink with Daffodil Delight centres. The sentiment was added below in Gorgeous Grape ink.

A strip of Parakeet Party Metallic Woven Ribbon was added to the bottom of the panel and secured on the back with Sellotape. The whole panel was the glued to the Gorgeous Grape layer. It was the mounted onto the Granny Apple Green card front on Dimensionals.
